    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Interventional Radiology
    • Surgical Complications

    Background:

    • Iatrogenic vascular lesions are injuries to blood vessels occurring as a result of medical or surgical interventions.
    • These injuries can arise from both diagnostic procedures like catheterization and angiography, and therapeutic interventions.
    • Vascular injuries can occur during any surgical operation, often presenting diagnostic challenges and delayed detection.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report on 46 cases of iatrogenic vascular lesions based on ten years of clinical experience.
    • To highlight the diverse origins of these lesions, stemming from diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
    • To discuss the diagnostic difficulties and potential underreporting of vascular injuries.

    Main Methods:

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Retrospective analysis of 46 cases of iatrogenic vascular lesions.
  • Review of clinical data spanning ten years of surgical practice.
  • Categorization of lesions based on the causative diagnostic or therapeutic procedure.

    • Main Results:

    • A total of 46 cases of iatrogenic vascular lesions were identified over a ten-year period.
    • Lesions resulted from various diagnostic procedures (e.g., catheterism, angiography, injections) and therapeutic interventions.
    • Diagnosis of vascular injuries was often difficult and frequently delayed.

    Conclusions:

    • Iatrogenic vascular lesions represent a significant complication in surgical and interventional procedures.
    • The actual incidence of these injuries may be higher than commonly recognized due to diagnostic challenges and underreporting.
    • Increased awareness and timely diagnosis are essential for effective management of iatrogenic vascular injuries.
