Özet

Perineal wounds caused by high-kinetic-energy shotgun blasts have a high mortality risk because they are often accompanied by injuries of the anus, rectum, genitourinary system, and extremities. Mortality often results from hemorrhagein the early stage and from multiple organ failure caused by sepsis in the late stage. The primary step in the treatmentof patients presenting with perineal wound and hemodynamic instability caused by severe hemorrhage is to controlhemorrhage and contamination using damage control surgery. After achieving hemodynamic stability, vacuum-assisted closure can be used to reduce the risks of infection and sepsis. In this report, we present a case who had a perinealwound caused by a mine blast and was successfully treated by damage control surgery and vacuum-assisted closure.
