  This is crucial in patients with multiple co-morbidities such as acute or chronic renal insufficiency. Furthermore, IVUS significantly reduces total fluoroscopy exposure to the patient (less than six minutes in this patient). [ctsnet.org]

Hypotension and tachycardia as a response to bleeding in the shock-scenario, in association with diffuse abdominal pain due to blood-induced peritoneal irritation, warrants an immediate workup, including an immediate surgical consultation, especially [ispub.com]

Any patient with suspicious findings on CXR or those injured by significant deceleration or acceleration mechanisms should undergo further workup. [2] Since cases of BTAI occur in patients with a normal CXR finding, any clinical suspicion of BTAI should [east.org]

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the endovascular treatment of acute post-traumatic thoracic aorta rupture. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatments Because traumatic aortic transection is a life-threatening condition, treatment is needed immediately. The most common treatment is endovascular treatment to repair the damaged area. [cedars-sinai.edu]

The main aim of this article is an analysis of both advantages and disadvantages of the modern solutions of treatment – percutaneous surgery, in comparison with the classic methods of treatments described in the surgery of Achilles’ tendon. [clujulmedical.umfcluj.ro]
