Description

<p>　　An 82-year-old woman was brought to a local hospital due to an abdominal stab wound. Intraabdominal hemorrhage was controlled with intraabdominal packing, and the patient was referred to our hospital for further treatment. At re-operation, infrahepatic vena caval injury was confirmed and repaired. Postoperative course was complicated by deep venous thrombosis of the lower limbs, but the patient recovered and was transferred to a local hospital on postoperative day 19. Packing may be an option for selected cases of penetrating inferior vena caval injury without concomitant injuries.</p>
