[Iatrogenic vascular injuries in childhood].
From 1973 until 1982, 616 arterial angiographies were done in children. 13 thromboses in the early state could be diagnosed and were treated surgically. Five times a haemorrhage after angiography made surgical intervention necessary. During the performance of a venesection there was an injury of the brachial artery three times. Two intraoperative iatrogenic vascular injuries were also reconstructed primarily. In the late stage three occlusions of the femoral artery and the distal external iliac artery were reconstructed. A decrease in the growth of the extremity could be seen in these cases. In this respect we want to emphasize the importance of an early diagnosis to prevent late complications.
