Abstract
The role of splenic artery embolization (SAE) in Grade V blunt splenic injury is poorly defined given the propensity of this population to proceed directly to splenectomy. Additionally, the definition of Grade V injury recently changed in the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) 2018 update to include vascular injury with active bleeding extending into the peritoneum. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of Grade V SAE in stable and unstable patients over the past 10 years.
