Demographics, Operative Profile, and Outcomes of Vascular Trauma and Acute Extremity Occlusions in Emergency Surgical Practice
Keywords:
Acute Limb Ischemia; Vascular Trauma; Revascularization; Above-Knee Amputation; Peripheral Arterial Disease; Emergency Vascular Surgery; Limb Salvage.Abstract
Objective: Emergency vascular surgicalconditions—including acute limb ischemia(ALI), vascular trauma, and infected
gangrenous lesions—present severe risks oflimb loss and patient mortality. Weanalyzed patient demographics, surgical
interventions, limb salvage outcomes, and statistical predictors of major amputation inan emergency vascular surgery cohort
