T2  - Vascular Injury: Endovascular and Open Surgical Management
AB  - During  World  War  II,  the  U.S.  Navy  recognized  the  importance  of  damage  control  strategies  and  published  a  manual  (Handbook  of  Damage  Control)  to  ensure  ships  remained  serviceable  in  battle  to  the  fullest  extent  possible.1  The  term  “damage  control,”  as  it  is  currently  used  in  surgery,  originated  in  a  paper  by  Rotondo  et  al.  in  1993.2  This  report  described  a  reduction  in  mortality  in  patients  with  severe  penetrating  abdominal  injury.  Rather  than  performing  the  “definitive  laparotomy”  at  the  index  operation,  a  “damage  control”  approach  was  implemented.  Therefore,  rapid  surgical  control  of  vascular  injury  and  hemorrhage  was  accomplished  in  conjunction  with  control  of  fecal  contamination.  Definitive  repairs  were  delayed  until  the  patient  underwent  significant  resuscitation  and  stabilization  outside  of  the  operative  room  (OR).  During  this  period,  correction  of  coagulopathy,  acidosis,  and  hypothermia  could  be  accomplished  and  definitive  surgical  management  planned.  Antecedent  publications  included  work  by  Stone  et  al.  in  1983  describing  rapid  intra-abdominal  packing  and  termination  of  laparotomy  at  the  onset  of  apparent  intraoperative  coagulopathy  with  return  to  OR  after  resuscitation  and  stabilization.3  Multiple  other  studies  have  further  refined  damage  control  strategies  and  techniques  establishing  the  foundation  for  this  surgical  maneuver.4–13  Damage  control  surgery  is  now  widely  practiced  and  the  application  of  damage  control  principles  are  implemented  in  the  most  severely  injured  trauma  patients.  In  vascular  surgery,  damage  control  strategies  focus  on  rapid  hemorrhage  control  and  temporary  restoration  of  end-organ  perfusion  in  order  to  mitigate  the  effects  of  ischemia  while  other  life-threatening  injuries  are  managed.
