ABSTRACT
Injury in the superior mesenteric vein (SMV) is notably rare among abdominal visceral vascular lesions and has high morbidity and mortality. A case of a young patient victim of abdominal stab wound (ASW) with an injury to the SMV and infrarenal aorta was reported. Several factors contributed to the favorable outcome of the patient including rapid response to trauma, hemodynamic stability, and the absence of patient comorbidities. The operative method initially includes rapid abdominal bleeding control and great saphenous patch preparation for the treatment of venous injury associated with damage control surgery and hemodynamic resuscitation at the intensive care unit. The patient was admitted to the surgical emergency room and, despite the severity of the injuries, presented a favorable result after operative treatment.
