چکیده

Limited evidence-based protocols exist regarding the management of venous pseudoaneurysms. Cases reports have documented surgical treatments including endovascular coil embolization or suture ligation in the setting of hemodynamic stability. Depending on the location of the venous injury, a more conservative approach to a stable pseudoaneurysm may be advantageous. This report describes a case of a patient who sustained a blunt traumatic common iliac vein pseudoaneurysm who was successfully managed non-operatively.

A rare opportunity for conservative treatment in a case of blunt trauma to the supradiaphragmatic inferior vena cava

Injuries to the inferior vena cava (IVC) secondary to blunt trauma are rare and occur in only 1-10% of all blunt trauma patients. Management of these injuries has not been subjected to major studies, but several case reports and small retrospective studies have demonstrated that management can be tailored to the hemodynamic status of the patient; this is similar to the management of blunt liver...
