Efstratios Georgakarakos commented on presentation Management of vascular trauma of the upper limbs.

»Very thorough presentation, directly to the point! Brings up the combination of endo- and open repair techniques in modern trauma era. Also, take into consideration the the incidence of upper limb trauma is increased due to iatrogenic traumas (i.e,, catheterization-related traumas). Every hospital (regardless of its trauma-level type) should be able to provide basic vascular trauma handling.«
