  • Title: Conservative management of aortic arch injury following penetrating trauma.
    Author: Mohammed RK, Cheung S, Parikh SP, Asgaria K.
    Journal: Ann R Coll Surg Engl; 2015 Apr; 97(3):184-7. PubMed ID: 26263801.
    Abstract:
    Aortic arch injuries following penetrating trauma are typically lethal events with high mortality rates. Traditionally, the standard of care for patients presenting with penetrating injury and aortic involvement has included surgical intervention. We report the case of a 31-year-old man who was managed non-operatively after sustaining multiple stab wounds to the left chest and presenting with mid aortic arch injury.
