Abstract:
Objective To probe into the feasibility and efficacy of damage control surgery (DCS) in treating severe pelvic fracture combined with abdominal organ injuries.Methods A retrospective analysis was done on the clinical data of 39 patients with severe pelvic fractures combined with abdominal organ injuries treated by DCS from 1995 to 2010.Results Devascularization of internal iliac arteries was performed to treat massive hemorrhage in the 39 patients with severe pelvic fractures combined with abdominal organ injuries,including ligation of bilateral internal iliac arteries in 31 palients and angioembolization of bilateral internal iliac arteries in eight.Meanwhile,early pelvic external fixators were used in 31 patients.All patients received discriminating internal fixation after resuscitation in ICU.The overall mortality rate was 21% (8/39),with average ISS of 41.6 points and with hemorrhagic shock and combined injury for the main causes of death.Complications occurred in seven patients including combined acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in three patients,thrombosis of right common iliac artery in one,subphernic abscesses in two,and deep infection of lower extremity in one,but all the complications were cured.Conclusions Reasonable and timely use of DCS can enhance the rescue survival rate of patients with severe pelvic fraclure combined with abdominal organ injuries.
