  • Title: Contemporary management of blunt aortic injury.
    Author: Jayaraj A, Starnes BW.
    Journal: Perspect Vasc Surg Endovasc Ther; 2011 Mar; 23(1):49-55. PubMed ID: 21502111.
    Abstract:
    Blunt aortic injury is second only to head injury as the most common cause of blunt trauma related death. The past several years have seen a tremendous growth in the endovascular treatment of such trauma. Short-term and medium-term follow-up data that are emerging seem to support this trend. In this article, the authors discuss about open and endovascular management of blunt aortic injury and provide the latest information regarding endovascular repair of such injuries.
