The records of 47 patients who underwent surgery with traumatic intraabdominal vascular injury at 2. and 3. Surgical Clinics of Izmir Atatürk Training and Research Hospital between January 1990 and December 1999 were studied. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic factors affecting the mortality. Hemoglobin (p < 0.05), hematocrit (p < 0.05), Glasgow Coma Score (p = 0.01), blood pressure (p < 0.05), Revised Trauma Score (p = 0.01), prehospital time (p = 0.01) and associated organ injury (p < 0.05) were the significant factors affecting the mortality. Our overall mortality was 46.8% and morbidity 41%.
