Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of endovascular treatment for closed limb artery trauma. MethodsFrom March 2006 to December 2011,the clinical data of 12 cases treated for closed limb artery trauma were analyzed retrospectively.Catheters sheath were placed by antegrade or retrograde puncture.Catheters was send to the proximal end of the lesion.Intraoperatively through angiography the location and extent of arterial lesions were determined.Catheter with the help of guidewire were sent through the lesion to establish treatment “ pathway,at the lesion site suitable stents were placed to repair damaged arteries. ResultsThe procedure was all successful in 12 patients,there was no mortality nor sever compalications.Postoperatively 2 cases suffered from acute renal failure,and were managed and cured by continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CWH).Osteofascial compartment incision decompression was carried out in 3 cases due to osteofascial compartment syndrome.One case of them suffered from amputation due to sever muscle necrosis and lost of limb function.Eleven patients were followed-up for 1year.All the arteries were patent.There were no stent break,deformation or stenosis.ConclusionsEndovascular techniques for the treatment of closed limb arterial trauma is safe and effective.
