Abstract Objective: To explore endovascular treatment of arterial injuries. Methods: Clinical records of 8 patients with arterial injuries who underwent endovascular treatment between September 2012 and December 2015 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Eight patients presented with 8 arterial injuries. The causes included impact injuries (n=4), drug injection (n=1), iatrogenic injuries (n=3). Among them, 2 cases of aortic dissection, 2 cases of carotid arterial injury, 1 case of subclavian arterial injury and 1 case of femoral profound artery pseudoaneurysm were treated with stent grafting. During follow up ranged from 4 to 36 months, all stent grafts were patent without any migration or endoleak. One case of superior gluteal artery pseudoaneurysm and 1 case of posterior tibial artery pseudoaneurysm were treated with arterial embolization. During follow up from 3 to 15 months, false aneurysm sac shrank without visible blood flow. Conclusion: Endovascular treatment plays an irreplaceable role in the treatment of arterial injuries.
