“…Vo et al 4 reported an overall mortality rate of 22% in pediatric patients undergoing SAE for splenic trauma, but this study included embolization of other organs besides the spleen in the analysis. In comparison, smaller studies with 15 or less patients reported no deaths.…”

“…Previous studies in children have demonstrated safety of embolization for traumatic splenic injuries, but have not provided direct comparison of two procedures. 24 In adults, SAE has been demonstrated to improve splenic salvage rates for grade IV and V injuries. 12 This point is especially important in the pediatric population, as children have a higher mortality rate from sepsis following splenectomy compared with adults.…”

“…Angioembolization has been used in children and adolescents with blunt trauma to control bleeding [40]. The majority of children with contrast extravasation do not need angioembolization, and the current role appears to be limited to children who are otherwise failing nonoperative management [41-44,45 & ].…”

“…Catheter-based interventions for life-threatening haemorrhage have a track record of effectiveness in adult and paediatric trauma [29,30]. Advantages include less insensible fluid loss, less risk of hypothermia and access to a bleeding site without a surgical incision's potential to disrupt tamponade.…”
