title: [Experience in surgical treatment of injuries of the major vessels].
abstract: Eighty-one patients were treated for injuries to the main vessels. They underwent operations at the Novgorod Regional Hospital and in surgical departments of the Novgorod Region. The injuries of the vessels were open in 90.1% and closed in 9.9% of patients. Among 125 reconstructive operations good results with restoration of arterial and venous blood flow and maintained function of the limb were produced in 67.9% and satisfactory results in 9.9% of patients. Amputation of the limb was carried out in 13 patients (16.0%). Mortality was 7.4% (six patients). The authors emphasize that early admission of patients to the hospital and the therapeutic tactics in a vascular trauma guarantee preservation of the injured limb, restoration of its function, and save the patient's life.
