研究概览
简要总结
This study retrospectively examines major vascular injuries that occurred during elective thoracic surgeries over a 10-year period at a single tertiary care center. Although these injuries are rare, they can lead to life-threatening complications. The study aims to determine how often these injuries happen, what causes them, and how they are managed during surgery. It also evaluates the role of preoperative imaging and planning, including cardiovascular surgery team involvement, in preventing or managing these events. The findings are intended to help improve surgical safety and guide future preventive strategies.

研究组 & 干预措施
Patients With Intraoperative Vascular Injury
This cohort includes patients who experienced major intraoperative vascular injuries during elective thoracic surgeries between January 2015 and December 2024. All patients underwent surgical repair of the injured vessel, such as primary suturing, graft interposition, or ligation. No randomization or intervention assignment was performed. Data were collected retrospectively from medical records to evaluate patient characteristics, surgical details, transfusion requirements, preoperative imaging findings, complication rates, and clinical outcomes. No biospecimens were collected or retained.

主要结局
Incidence of Major Intraoperative Vascular Injuries During Elective Thoracic Surgeries
时间窗: During Surgery (Intraoperative Period)
The primary outcome is the incidence rate of major vascular injuries identified during elective thoracic surgeries performed between January 2015 and December 2024. Major vascular injury is defined as intraoperative bleeding from central vessels such as the subclavian artery or vein, brachiocephalic vein, innominate artery or vein, superior vena cava (SVC), or thoracic aorta, requiring immediate surgical intervention (e.g., primary repair, grafting, or ligation).
