A case of multiple organ injury resuscitated by collaboration of damage control surgery and interventional radiology in hybrid emergency room

Le résumé fourni par la source

Background: Hybrid emergency room systems, namely hybrid ER (HER), enable us to perform computed tomography (CT), surgery, and interventional radiology (IVR) without patient transfer. HER significantly shortened the time to CT after arrival and allowed us to achieve early intervention, resulting in reduced mortality from exsanguination in patients with severe blunt trauma. Case Presentation: We encountered a patient diagnosed with left common iliac artery occlusion and dissection caused by blunt traumatic compressive abdominal injury with transection of the small intestine, kidney, and adrenal and pelvic ring fractures. Although the patient experienced cardiopulmonary arrest (CPA) immediately after CT, we performed damage control surgery (DCS) and IVR after temporary aortic occlusion in the HER and resuscitated the patient. Conclusion: The present case, in which rapid diagnosis and intervention were performed and the patient was successfully resuscitated, supports the efficacy of the HER system for managing severe blunt trauma.
