Pediatric peripheral vascular injuries and associated orthopedic considerations

William Zickler et al. Semin Pediatr Surg. 2021 Dec.

Abstract

Pediatric peripheral vascular trauma is a rare but highly morbid injury in children and is frequently associated with concomitant orthopedic injuries. These children require multidisciplinary care by pediatric, vascular, and orthopedic surgery. In this review, we describe elements of the complex care required for children with peripheral vascular trauma.

Keywords: Pediatric peripheral vascular injuries; pediatric orthopedic injuries.
