Objective: To study the possibilities and results of reconstruction of caval veins.
Material And Methods: We analyzed the results of reconstruction of caval veins in 31 patients (19 men and 12 women) including superior vena cava (SVC) in 5 cases and inferior vena cava (IVC) in 26 cases. Penetrating wounds with vascular damage were found in 8 patients.
Iatrogenic events made up 1-10% of in-hospital mortality. Currently, iatrogenic vascular injuries are described for almost all surgical areas. Incidence of iatrogenic vascular injuries is gradually increased that is primarily associated with high number of percutaneous endovascular interventions.
