Background: For thirty years, a major shift in the management of liver trauma has been seen. Contained hepatic vascular injuries (CHVI), including pseudo aneurysms and arteriovenous fistula, are often feared due to their risk of secondary bleeding. Nonetheless, knowledge of CHVI is scarce and no guidelines on their management have been set. The investigators aimed to validate the risk factors of CHVI, identify associated morbidities, and establish a management protocol.
Study Design: A retrospective study on 318 liver trauma from a level 1 trauma center over the last 15 years, comparing the presence or not of CHVI. Univarious and multivarious analyses were performed. A comparison of the management of CHVI was also performed.
