Abstract

Damage control surgery is labor intensive and consumes extensive materials. The unusual logistic effort surrounding the critically injured patient is an integral part of the challenge of damage control surgery. This article is based on data gleaned from the major series in the literature and on the ongoing experience of the Ben Taub General Hospital with patients undergoing damage control surgery.
