T2  - Vascular Injury: Endovascular and Open Surgical Management
AB  - Trauma  is  the  leading  cause  of  injury  and  death  in  children  older  than  1  year  of  age,  contributing  to  26.7%  to  36.3%  of  the  overall  mortality.1  However,  vascular  trauma  represents  only  0.65%  to  1%  of  recorded  traumatic  injury.2,3  Further,  when  compared  to  vascular  injuries  within  the  adult  population,  the  pediatric  population  has  better  outcomes  with  less  injury  severity  and  higher  survival.3  This  improvement  in  pediatric  outcomes  has  been  attributed  to  many  factors  including  the  physiologic  reserve  of  children,  the  absence  of  vascular  disease,  and  the  higher  incidence  of  isolated  upper  extremity  injuries.
