Traumatic venous injuries are associated with high mortality rates. When they involve the inferior vena cava and iliac veins, prompt treatment is necessary in cases of patient instability. Endovascular treatment of a traumatic injury at the iliac confluence extending to the proximal external iliac vein was performed in a 50-year-old patient following a fall. A GORE Excluder PLC141400 endograft was placed at the bleeding site via percutaneous transfemoral access, combined with simultaneous embolization of the internal iliac vein through right percutaneous jugular access. Effective haemostasis was achieved, along with normalization of blood pressure. Prompt diagnosis and recognition of the condition are vital for achieving blood pressure stabilization and haemostasis in unstable patients.

Abstract
Traumatic venous injuries are associated with high mortality rates. When they involve the inferior vena cava and iliac veins, prompt treatment is necessary in cases of patient instability. Endovascular treatment of a traumatic injury at the iliac confluence extending to the proximal external iliac vein was performed in a 50-year-old patient following a fall. A GORE Excluder PLC141400 endograft was placed at the bleeding site via percutaneous transfemoral access, combined with simultaneous embolization of the internal iliac vein through right percutaneous jugular access. Effective haemostasis was achieved, along with normalization of blood pressure. Prompt diagnosis and recognition of the condition are vital for achieving blood pressure stabilization and haemostasis in unstable patients.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
