Predictors and pathways of in-hospital mortality in active vascular contrast extravasation detected on abdominopelvic CT.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

This study aimed to identify factors influencing in-hospital mortality in adult patients with active vascular contrast extravasation (AVCE) on abdominopelvic computed tomography (CT).

Methods

All consecutive patients with AVCE detected on CT between January 2019 and May 2022 were retrospectively included. Their data were compared through uni- and multivariable analyses between patients with and without in-hospital mortality. Path analysis was utilized to clarify the relationships among factors affecting mortality.

Results

There were 272 patients (60.2 ± 19.4 years, 150 men) included, of whom 70 experienced in-hospital mortality. Multivariable analysis revealed nonsurgery, chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 4-5 or dialysis, prolonged partial thromboplastin t
