Abstract

Objective: To assess the outcome of vascular injuries in patients presenting 6-12 hours after isolated vascular trauma.

Methods: The analytical cross-sectional study was conducted at East Surgical Ward of Mayo Hospital, Lahore, Pakistan, from July 1, 2020, to June 30, 2022 and comprised consecutive patients of either gender aged >13 years with isolated vascular trauma presenting 6-12 hours after vascular injury. Operative procedures included ligation, end-to-end repair and reverse venous graft of the injured vessels. Outcomes, including cause of amputation and mortality, were noted. Data was analysed using SPSS 26.

Results: Of the 82 patients, 61(74.03%) were males and 21(25.06%) were females. The overall mean age was 33±5.41 years. Femoral artery was damaged more 54(65.85%) compared to brachial artery 28(34.14%) in all modes of injuries. Ligation of vessel was done in 35(42.68%) cases. Mortality was the outcome in 15(18.29%) patients, amputation in 29(35.36%) and discharge after successful vascular repair 38(46.34%).

Conclusion: Ligation of the femoral or brachial artery was found to be a safe and lifesaving procedure in patients presenting 6-12 hours after isolated vascular trauma to the emergency department in a tertiary care setting.

巴基斯坦一家三级医院孤立性血管创伤后6至12小时患者的预后

目的：评价孤立性血管损伤后6 ~ 12小时出现血管损伤的患者的预后。方法：分析性横断面研究于2020年7月1日至2022年6月30日在巴基斯坦拉合尔梅奥医院东外科病房进行，包括年龄在bb0 - 13岁、血管损伤后6-12小时出现孤立性血管损伤的连续患者，男女不限。手术包括结扎、端到端修复和损伤血管逆行静脉移植。结果包括截肢原因和死亡率。数据采用SPSS 26进行分析。结果：82例患者中，男性61例（74.03%），女性21例（25.06%）。总平均年龄33±5.41岁。股动脉损伤54例（65.85%），肱动脉损伤28例（34.14%）。结扎血管35例（42.68%）。死亡15例（18.29%），截肢29例（35.36%），血管修复成功出院38例（46.34%）。结论：在孤立性血管创伤后6-12小时到三级医疗机构急诊科就诊的患者中，结扎股动脉或肱动脉是一种安全且挽救生命的手术。
