Vascular trauma is a leading cause of arterial aneurysms, distinct from Western trends. Surgical reconstruction of these aneurysms is highly successful, demonstrating low morbidity and mortality rates.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Trauma Surgery
  • Atherosclerosis Research

Background:

  • Arterial aneurysms pose significant health risks, with varied etiologies globally.
  • Understanding the predominant causes of aneurysms is crucial for effective clinical management.
  • Previous studies highlight atherosclerotic disease as a common cause in Western populations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the clinical characteristics and outcomes of arterial aneurysm management.
  • To identify the primary causes of arterial aneurysms in the studied population.
  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of surgical reconstruction for arterial aneurysms.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 46 patients undergoing arterial aneurysm surgery over eight years.

  • Categorization of aneurysms into vascular trauma-related and atherosclerotic types.
  • Assessment of patient presentation, surgical outcomes, and peri-operative mortality.

    • Main Results:

    • Vascular trauma was the leading cause (29 patients) compared to atherosclerotic aneurysms (17 patients).
    • Most patients presented with swelling (31) or mild pain (4), with few showing frank rupture.
    • Successful reconstruction was achieved in all cases, with a low peri-operative mortality of 4.3%.

    Conclusions:

    • Arterial aneurysms in this region are predominantly caused by vascular trauma, differing from Western epidemiological patterns.
    • Surgical intervention for arterial aneurysms, regardless of cause, yields successful outcomes with minimal complications.
    • Effective management strategies exist for arterial aneurysms, even in cases arising from trauma, ensuring low patient morbidity and mortality.
