Vascular geometry as a risk factor for non-penetrating traumatic injuries of the aortic arch.
<h4>Purpose</h4>To assess biomechanical factors in aortic arch geometry contributing to the development of non-penetrating aortic arch injury (NAAI) in multiply injured patients with an Injury Severity Score (ISS) ≥ 16.<h4>Material and methods</h4>230 consecutive multiply inj...
