Deskripsi

Aortic transection following blunt trauma chest is one of the main life-threatening situations requiring early intervention. The endovascular approach is now preferred; however, in some conditions, an open approach is warranted. We describe our experience of dealing with acute traumatic transection in six such patients over the past 3 years.
