Abstract

In a review of 55 patients with 98 penetrating vascular injuries over more than 2 years (most were gunshot wounds), the mortality rate was 46% in patients with intra-abdominal vascular injuries and 7% in those with extra-abdominal injuries. There were no major amputations. One patient had two fingers amputated.
