Abstract

Traumatic pelvic injuries usually include high-energy crush injuries and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Mortality rates range from 6% to 15% and increase to 36%-54% in cases of fractures that result in increased pelvic volume. Therefore, retroperitoneal hemorrhage can spiral and progress to hemorrhagic shock. Pelvic hemorrhage most commonly occurs secondary to disrupted pelvic veins or fractured bones, and 10%-20% of cases involve arterial injuries. Owing to extensive bleeding and limitations of surgery for pelvic hemorrhage, interventional treatment is at the forefront of pelvic hemorrhage management. CT is an accurate indicator of active hemorrhage in patients with pelvic trauma that affects the diagnosis and management, including interventions. Identification of the site of hemorrhage is necessary for focused interventional treatment. The current trend toward a more conservative approach for treatment of pelvic trauma and advances in interventional radiology in the field of pelvic trauma may favor widespread use of interventional treatment for patients with pelvic injuries. In this review, we discuss therapeutic modalities available to the interventional radiologist and common angiographic treatment strategies and techniques.

골반 외상은 대부분 고에너지 손상을 동반하며, 이에 따른 치명률 및 사망률이 높은 편이다. 관련된 출혈은 대부분 골반내 정맥이 손상되거나 해면골이 골절되어 발생하고 혈종에 의해 안정화되지만, 10%-20%에서 동맥 출혈이 동반되며, 골반 용적이 증가된 상태에서 동맥 출혈이 지속된다면 이로 인한 사망률은 36%-54%까지 증가한다. 골반의 해부학적 구조상 다양하고 풍부한 혈관이 분포되어 있고, 골반 외상 환자 대부분이 많은 양의 혈종을 동반하기 때문에, 수술적 치료는 시야 확보의 어려움과 눌림 효과에 따른 지혈효과를 없애 출혈을 더 조장할 수 있어, 1차적으로 인터벤션 치료가 권고되고 있다. 또한 출혈의 위치가 대부분 골절된 부분이기 때문에 CT를 통해 시술 전 출혈 부위를 특정하여 빠른 시간 내에 출혈에 대한 색전술을 시행할 수 있다. 이처럼 올바른 진단과 치료를 동시에 할 수 있다는 장점으로 인해 골반 외상 환자에 있어 인터벤션 치료는 중추적인 역할을 담당하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 문헌고찰을 통해 골반 외상에 대한 올바른 진단 및 인터벤션 치료의 유용성과 고려 사항에 대해 알아보고자 한다.
