RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Autologous vein is the preferred bypass conduit for extremity arterial injuries owing to superior patency and low infection risk; however, long-term data on outcomes in civilians are limited. Our goal was to assess short- and long-term outcomes of autologous vein bypass for upper and lower extremity arterial trauma. METHODS: A retrospective review was performed of patients with major extremity arterial injuries (2001-2019) at a level I trauma center. Demographics, injury and intervention details, and outcomes were recorded. Primary outcomes were primary patency at 1 year and 3 years. Secondary outcomes were limb function at 6 months, major amputation, and mortality. Multivariable analysis determined risk factors for functional impairment. RESULTS: There were 107 extremity arterial injuries (31.8% upper and 68.2% lower) treated with autologous vein bypass. Mechanism was penetrating in 77% of cases, of which 79.3% were due to firearms. The most frequently injured vessels were the common and superficial femoral (38%), popliteal (30%), and brachial arteries (29%). For upper extremity trauma, concomitant nerve and orthopedic injuries were found in 15 (44.1%) and 11 (32.4%) cases, respectively. For lower extremities, concomitant nerve injuries were found in 10 (13.7%) cases, and orthopedic injuries in 31 (42.5%). Great saphenous vein was the conduit in 96% of cases. Immediate intraoperative bypass revision occurred in 9.3% of patients, most commonly for graft thrombosis. The in-hospital return to operating room rate was 15.9%, with graft thrombosis (47.1%) and wound infections (23.5%) being the most common reasons. The median follow-up was 3.6 years. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed 92% primary patency at 1 year and 90% at 3 years. At 6 months, 36.1% of patients had functional impairment. Of patients with functional impairment at 6 months, 62.9% had concomitant nerve and 60% concomitant orthopedic injuries. Of those with nerve injury, 91.7% had functional impairment, compared with 17.8% without nerve injury (P < .001). Of patients with orthopedic injuries, 51.2% had functional impairment, vs 25% of those without orthopedic injuries (P = .01). On multivariable analysis, concomitant nerve injury (odds ratio, 127.4; 95% confidence interval, 17-957; P <. 001) and immediate intraoperative revision (odds ratio, 11.03; 95% confidence interval, 1.27-95.55; P = .029) were associated with functional impairment. CONCLUSIONS: Autologous vein bypass for major extremity arterial trauma is durable; however, many patients have long-term limb dysfunction associated with concomitant nerve injury and immediate intraoperative bypass revision. These factors may allow clinicians to identify patients at higher risk for functional impairment, to outline patient expectations and direct rehabilitation efforts toward improving functional outcomes.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Despite the increasing use of endovascular therapy for traumatic arterial injuries, little is known about the outcomes of endovascular repair of superficial femoral artery (SFA) and popliteal artery (PA) injuries. In the present study, we compared the characteristics and outcomes of endovascular vs open repair of traumatic SFA and PA injuries. METHODS: We performed a retrospective National Trauma Data Bank analysis of trauma patients with a blunt or penetrating injury of the SFA and/or PA who had undergone endovascular or open repair from 2007 to 2014. Multivariate logistic regression was used to compare the outcomes, with propensity score matching used for sensitivity analysis. RESULTS: The incidence of SFA and PA injuries was 0.2%, with an overall increase in the annual use of endovascular stent repair from 3.2% in 2007 to 7.6% in 2014 (P = .002). A total of 2,873 patients with an isolated SFA and/or PA injury were included in the present study, of whom 163 (5.7%) had undergone endovascular repair. SFA injuries were more frequently treated with endovascular repair (70% vs 27%) and PA injuries were more often associated with open repair (41.1% vs 54.7%). Open repair was more frequently associated with a concomitant femur fracture or knee dislocation (30.7% vs 38.8%; P = .039). Endovascular repair was not associated with worse in-hospital amputation-free survival (AFS) compared with open repair on univariate analysis (91.1% vs 89.7%; P = .573) or multivariate logistic regression (odds ratio [OR], 1.053; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.551-2.012; P = .876). Propensity score matching revealed that in-hospital mortality was higher (OR, 3.69; 95% CI, 1.37-9.82; P = .01) and fasciotomy was lower (OR, 0.23; 95% CI, 0.14-0.37; P < .001) in the endovascular repair group, with no significant differences in AFS (OR, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.48-1.67; P = .65). CONCLUSIONS: Endovascular repair of SFA and PA injuries has in-hospital AFS comparable to that for open repair, supporting the increasing use of endovascular repair for traumatic SFA and PA injuries in appropriately selected cases. Given the unexpected finding of increased in-hospital mortality after endovascular repair, further studies are necessary to determine the appropriate patient selection and the durability of endovascular repair.

RESUMEN

Despite its relative underutilization in the primary management of aortoiliac occlusive disease, thoracofemoral bypass is an attractive extra-anatomic surgical option in select patients. Thoracofemoral bypass classically entails passing a graft from the left chest into the retroperitoneal space through a small opening created in the diaphragm. While theoretically possible that this maneuver may predispose to a peri-graft diaphragmatic hernia, currently there are no cases of this complication reported in the literature, nor has its surgical repair been described. This case illustrates the rare complication of symptomatic diaphragmatic hernia following a thoracobifemoral bypass.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Use of autologous great saphenous vein (GSV) grafts for repair of extremity arterial injuries is well established. Contralateral great saphenous vein (cGSV) is traditionally used in the setting of lower extremity vascular injury given the risk of occult ipsilateral superficial and deep venous injury. We evaluated outcomes of ipsilateral GSV (iGSV) bypass in patients with lower extremity vascular trauma. METHODS: Patient records at an ACS verified Level I urban trauma center between 2001 and 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients who sustained lower extremity arterial injuries managed with autologous GSV bypass were included. Propensity-matched analysis compared the iGSV and cGSV groups. Primary graft patency was assessed via Kaplan-Meier analysis at 1-year and 3-years following the index operation. RESULTS: A total of 76 patients underwent autologous GSV bypass for lower extremity vascular injuries. 61 cases (80%) were secondary to penetrating trauma, and 15 patients (20%) underwent repair with iGSV bypass. Arteries injured in the iGSV group included popliteal (33.3%), common femoral (6.7%), superficial femoral (33.3%), and tibial (26.7%), while those in the cGSV group included common femoral (3.3%), superficial femoral (54.1%), and popliteal (42.6%). Reasons for using iGSV included trauma to the contralateral leg (26.7%), relative accessibility (33.3%), and other/unknown (40%). On unadjusted analysis, iGSV patients had a higher rate of 1-year amputation than cGSV patients (20% vs. 4.9%), but this was not statistically significant (P = 0.09). Propensity matched analysis also found no significant difference in 1-year major amputation (8.3% vs. 4.8%, P = 0.99). Regarding ambulatory status, iGSV patients had similar rates of independent ambulation (33.3% vs. 38.1%), need for assistive devices (58.3% vs. 57.1%), and use of a wheelchair (8.3% vs. 4.8%) compared cGSV patients at subsequent follow-up (P = 0.90). Kaplan-Meier analysis of bypass grafts revealed comparable primary patency rates for iGSV versus cGSV bypasses at 1-year (84% vs. 91%) and 3-years post-intervention (83% vs. 90%, P = 0.364). CONCLUSION: Ipsilateral GSV may be used as a durable conduit for bypass in cases of lower extremity arterial trauma where use of contralateral GSV is not feasible, with comparable long-term primary graft patency rates and ambulatory status.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Obesity has been described as a significant risk factor for adverse outcomes in hospitalized patients. However, recent literature reports an "obesity paradox", suggesting that obesity may have a protective effect in a subset of surgical and critically ill patients. The present study assesses the effect of body mass index (BMI) on outcomes following severe isolated blunt chest trauma. METHODS: This was a TQIP database study including patients with severe isolated blunt chest injury (chest AIS 3-5, extrathoracic AIS <3). Patients were excluded for age <20 or >89, death on arrival, facility transfer, or BMI <10 or >55. Patients were divided into five groups according to BMI: underweight (BMI <18.5), normal weight (18.5-24.9), overweight (25.0-29.9), obesity class 1 (30.0-34.9), obesity class 2 (35.0-39.9) and obesity class 3 (≥40.0). Logistic regression models were constructed to evaluate the effect of BMI on outcomes. RESULTS: 28,820 patients met criteria for inclusion in the analysis. After multivariable analysis, underweight patients as well as obesity class 2 and 3 patients had a significantly higher mortality (OR 1.86 [95% CI, 1.12-3.10], OR 1.48 [95% CI, 1.02-2.16], and OR 1.60 [95% CI, 1.03-2.50]), respectively. Underweight patients had significantly higher risk of overall complications as compared to normal weight patients (OR 1.58 [95% CI, 1.34-1.88]). Obesity class 2 and 3 were independently associated with increased respiratory complications (OR 1.60 [95% CI, 1.27-2.01] and OR 1.58 [95% CI, 1.20-2.09], respectively) and all classes of overweight and obese patients were associated with increased risk of VTE complications (OR 1.68 [95% CI, 1.23-2.27], OR 1.98 [95% CI, 1.42-2.77], OR 2.32 [95% CI, 1.55-3.48], OR 2.02 [95% CI, 1.23-3.33], respectively for overweight and obesity class 1, 2, 3). CONCLUSIONS: The obesity paradox does not extend to severe blunt chest trauma. Underweight and obesity class 2 and 3 patients have worse mortality than normal weight patients. Obesity was independently associated with an increased risk of pulmonary and VTE complications.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Obesity has been widely reported to confer significant morbidity and mortality in both medical and surgical patients. However, contemporary data indicate that obesity may confer protection after both critical illness and certain types of major surgery. The authors hypothesized that this "obesity paradox" may apply to patients with isolated severe blunt traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). METHODS: The Trauma Quality Improvement Program (TQIP) database was queried for patients with isolated severe blunt TBI (head Abbreviated Injury Scale [AIS] score 3-5, all other body areas AIS < 3). Patient data were divided based on WHO classification levels for BMI: underweight (< 18.5 kg/m2), normal weight (18.5-24.9 kg/m2), overweight (25.0-29.9 kg/m2), obesity class 1 (30.0-34.9 kg/m2), obesity class 2 (35.0-39.9 kg/m2), and obesity class 3 (≥ 40.0 kg/m2). The role of BMI in patient outcomes was assessed using regression models. RESULTS: In total, 103,280 patients were identified with isolated severe blunt TBI. Data were excluded for patients aged < 20 or > 89 years or with BMI < 10 or > 55 kg/m2 and for patients who were transferred from another treatment center or who showed no signs of life upon presentation, leaving data from 38,446 patients for analysis. Obesity was not found to confer a survival advantage on univariate analysis. On multivariate analysis, underweight patients as well as obesity class 1 and 3 patients had a higher rate of mortality (OR 1.86, 95% CI 1.48-2.34; OR 1.18, 95% CI 1.01-1.37; and OR 1.41, 95% CI 1.03-1.93, respectively). Increased obesity class was associated with an increased risk of respiratory complications (obesity class 1: OR 1.19, 95% CI 1.03-1.37; obesity class 2: OR 1.30, 95% CI 1.05-1.62; obesity class 3: OR 1.55, 95% CI 1.18-2.05) and thromboembolic complications (overweight: OR 1.43, 95% CI 1.16-1.76; obesity class 1: OR 1.45, 95% CI 1.11-1.88; obesity class 2: OR 1.55, 95% CI 1.05-2.29) despite a decreased risk of overall complications (obesity class 2: OR 0.82, 95% CI 0.73-0.92; obesity class 3: OR 0.83, 95% CI 0.72-0.97). Underweight patients had a significantly increased risk of overall complications (OR 1.39, 95% CI 1.24-1.57). CONCLUSIONS: Although there was an obesity-associated decrease in overall complications, the study data did not demonstrate a paradoxical protective effect of obesity on mortality after isolated severe blunt TBI. Obese patients with isolated severe blunt TBI are at increased risk of respiratory and venous thromboembolic complications. However, underweight patients appear to be at highest risk after severe blunt TBI, with significantly increased risks of morbidity and mortality.

RESUMEN

Stanford type B aortic dissections (TBADs) involve the descending aorta and can present with complications, including malperfusion syndrome or aortic rupture, which are associated with significant morbidity and mortality if left untreated. Clinical diagnosis is straightforward, typically confirmed using CT angiography. Treatment begins with immediate anti-impulse medical therapy. Acute TBAD with complications should be repaired with emergent thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). Uncomplicated TBAD with high-risk features should undergo TEVAR in the subacute phase. Open surgical repair is seldom required and reserved only for select cases. It is critical to follow these patients clinically and radiographically in the outpatient setting.
