AB  - One of the surgical emergencies is vascular trauma which it should be managed by vascular surgery as soon as possible. The delay in referring the patient to surgery ward will cause the involved organ to be failed. In general, vascular traumas are divided into two types of penetrating and blunt traumas. The aim of this study is evaluating the profile of indications of vascular surgeries in northwest Iran. In this study, during 3 years, 33 patients were referred to this center and underwent vascular trauma surgery. The mean ages of involvement were between 20-40 years old. About 30 patients (90%) were male and 3 cases (10%) were female. The high rates of trauma were due to blunt type and the car accident was in the first rank. The highest rate of involvement occurred in posterior limb (20 cases). Of 33 patients with vascular trauma, 14 cases underwent vascular surgery in 6 h after the trauma. The rest referred and underwent surgery with >6 h delay. According to the results of this study, the researchers showed that the delay in referring the patient to surgery ward will cause the involved organ to be failed in higher rate in comparison to the rest.
