PubMed ID: 9163158. Abstract: During the time of rendering special angiosurgical aid in the zone of military operations near the city of Gagra 28 wounded with gunshot injuries of major vessels of the neck and extremities were operated upon, which was 4.5% of all the wounded. Different procedures on the vessels were performed immediately after diagnosing the injuries within minimum terms after wounds in parallel with antishock measures. There was no intra- and postoperative lethality. Thrombosis of the restored arteries was noted in 4 out of all the patients operated upon. The extremity had to be amputated because of thrombosis of the operated artery in 2 cases only which made up 7.2% of all the interventions performed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
