  • Title: Vascular injury in neurotrauma.
    Author: Guyot LL, Kazmierczak CD, Diaz FG.
    Journal: Neurol Res; 2001; 23(2-3):291-6. PubMed ID: 11320609.
    Abstract:
    Traumatic vascular lesions can occur after severe or even the most mild of head and cervical trauma. The initial evaluation of the injured patient must be thorough and the clinical suspicion of vascular injury must be highly suspected based on the mechanism of injury. Traumatic vascular injuries can be broadly classified into traumatic aneurysms, dissections and occlusions and fistulae of the carotid or vertebral arteries. The current management and treatment options of each condition are discussed.
