To compare the clinical efficacy and limb salvage outcomes of endovascular intervention versus conventional open surgical repair in patients with traumatic subclavian artery injuries.
Retrospective review of patients presenting with blunt or penetrating subclavian artery injuries between March 2012 and March 2021.
Compared endovascular intervention against traditional open surgical reconstruction for limb salvage, complications, and perioperative metrics.
Limb salvage, mortality, procedure-related complications, reintervention rates, and in-hospital medical complications did not differ statistically between open and endovascular repairs.
Intraoperative blood loss, red blood cell transfusion requirements, and hospital length of stay were significantly lower in the endovascular intervention group.

Implication

Retrospective study reveals comparable limb salvage and reduced blood loss with endovascular repair in traumatic subclavian artery injury, indicating a viable alternative to open surgery.
