Injuries to any of these arteries are uncommon. Ligation rather than repair is used frequently for the celiac artery, and survival for all those with open approaches approximates 40% to 60% when penetrating wounds cause greater than 85% of injuries (Table 13-1).1,2 The other and least important visceral vessel is the inferior mesenteric artery arising from the infrarenal abdominal aorta.
