dc.description.abstractObjectives: To present our experience in delivering endovascular therapies for emergent vascular traumas with various vascular structures. Methods: Between September 2013 and February 2018, patients who underwent endovascular intervention due to penetrating, blunt and iatrogenic arterial traumas were analyzed, retrospectively. Demographic data, trauma site, mechanism of injury, angiographic findings or arterial injury patterns, treatment methods, and outcomes were recorded. Results: A total of 30 patients were included. The mean age of patients was 39 years (range: 15-87 years). Arterial trauma locations were in the compressible area with a rate of 43% (n=13) and in the noncompressed area with a rate of 57% (n=17). Mechanisms of injuries were blunt [53% (n=16)], penetrating [17% (n=5)], and iatrogenic [30% (n=9)]. The most common indication for endovascular treatment was blunt noncompressible injury (n=12). Methods used for treatment were stent-graft (46%, n=14) and coil embolization (54%, n=16). Immediate success was obtained in all procedures. The mean follow-up duration was 5 months (range: 1-12 months). Conclusions: Endovascular treatments performed in traumatic arterial emergencies are effective and minimally invasive with very low complication rates even in hemodynamically unstable patients.
