Damage control in abdominal vascular trauma

Abstract: Abdominal vascular trauma occurs in a small proportion of patients admitted in trauma centers. However, up to a quarter or a third of the patients who require a laparotomy will have a vascular injury. Preoperative identification is impossible in most cases, therefore, surgeons must be prepared for its early intraoperative recognition to allow appropriate management. This include temporary bleeding control techniques, identification of the probable injured vessel and the specific approach and management. Often,… Show more

“…When in the operating room, patients underwent a DCL (involving surgical control of bleeding and contamination plus packing with laparotomy pads plus leaving the abdominal wall open) if there was evidence of hypothermia, metabolic acidosis or hyperlactatemia (reflecting physiological exhaustion), hemoperitoneum and/or destructive intra-abdominal organ injuries. A detailed description on how we approach and provide surgical treatment to patients with abdominal injuries requiring damage-control surgery at our institution is described elsewhere [ 9 , 10 ].…”

“…The protocol for organ injury management and abdominal wall closure has been previously published [ 9 , 10 , 15 ]. In brief, delayed abdominal closure was considered a bridge to achieve three main goals: 1. compartment syndrome prevention, 2. definitive control of bleeding and contamination, and 3. definitive wound healing.…”

“…Once the emergent damage was contained, the surgeon made the determination of “damage control” to conclude the operation, allowing for physiological stabilization (García et al, 2021; Sartelli et al, 2015). The patient would return for multiple reconstructive surgeries.…”
