A2 - Rajani, Ravi R. PY - 2023 T2 - Vascular Injury: Endovascular and Open Surgical Management AB - Injury to the peripheral veins in the extremities occurs via a wide variety of mechanisms. The presence of peripheral venous injuries is an often overlooked problem in extremity trauma given the more profound effects of similar arterial injury as noted by the small number of studies regarding prevalence, operative indications, and postoperative management. The heterogeneity of these injuries and the sequela of their management also contribute to the paucity of literature relative to arterial injuries. This is especially true of upper extremity injuries, which have been historically ligated with few long-standing implications to patient morbidity. Trauma to the peripheral venous systems can negatively impact both associated arterial repairs and long-term morbidity associated with extremity injuries.
