Jul 11, 2024 | americanjournalofsurgery.com | Devin M. O’Connor |Christina M. Colosimo |Collin Stewart |Qmar Hejazi

The aim of this study was to examine the association between the injury mechanism and repair type with outcomes in patients with traumatic inferior vena cava injuries. This is a retrospective analysis of the ACS-TQIP database (2017-2020), including patients with traumatic IVC injuries. Patients were stratified by injury mechanism and type of repair and compared. Out of 1,334 patients, 5% underwent endovascular repair while 95% had an open procedure. Overall, 74.7% sustained a penetrating injury.
