dc.description.abstractBACKGROUND: The purpose of our study was to assess the mid-term outcomes of the patients with grade III blunt thoracic aortic injury (BTAI) who were treated non-operatively and to determine the specific conditions for successful NOM. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed patients with grade III BTAI at a single level 1 trauma center between January 2012 and March 2020, and compared the demographics and outcomes of NOM and thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). We also examined the factors contributing to the selection of NOM by calculating the odds ratios for age, sex, initial systolic blood pressure, injury severity score, abbreviated injury scale score, pseudoaneurysm/neck (P/N) ratio, and comorbidity. RESULTS: In total, 46 adults were included. Thirty patients underwent NOM and 19 underwent TEVAR. The time from injury to computed tomography, hospital days, intensive care unit length of stay, and follow-up period showed no difference between the two groups. Aorta-related mortality was not observed in either group. Two patients (7.4%) in the NOM group experienced an increase in pseudoaneurysms: one of them underwent delayed surgical repair without complications, and the other maintained regular follow-up. The odds ratio for selecting NOM was significant when the P/N ratio was < 1.30 (OR = 4.687 [95% CI, 1.229-17.882], p = 0.024). CONCLUSIONS: We suggest that carefully selected patients with BTAI grade III could be observed nonoperatively or treated by delayed intervention on outpatient basis, and a P/N ratio < 1.30 can be used as a cutoff to decide treatment options for BTAI grade III.-
