Abstract
Bladder inflation may be a temporizing measure to tamponade pelvic bleeding in select trauma cases to bridge the patient to definitive interventions. Ultrasonographic confirmation of an intact bladder with an adjacent pelvic haematoma in a shocked adult with pelvic fracture is used for subject selection. An illustrative example of physiologic and interventional radiological control of pelvic bleeding following bladder inflation with sterile saline is presented.
期刊介绍:
Trauma Case Reports is the only open access, online journal dedicated to the publication of case reports in all aspects of trauma care and accident surgery. Case reports on all aspects of trauma management, surgical procedures for all tissues, resuscitation, anaesthesia and trauma and tissue healing will be considered for publication by the international editorial team and will be subject to peer review. Bringing together these cases from an international authorship will shed light on surgical problems and help in their effective resolution.
