The liver is one of the most commonly injured solid organs in blunt abdominal trauma. Non-operative management is considered to be the gold standard for the care of most blunt liver injuries. Angioembolization has emerged as an important adjunct that is vital to the success of the non-operative management strategy for blunt hepatic injuries. This procedure, however, is fraught with some possible serious complications. The success, as well as rate of complications of this procedure, is determined by degree and type of injury, hepatic anatomy and physiology, and embolization strategy among other factors. In this review, we discuss these important considerations to help shed further light on the contribution and impact of angioembolization with regards to complex hepatic injuries.

Management of wrist arthritis may involve many options, including motion preserving and motion sacrificing procedures. Total wrist arthrodesis is often considered the gold standard for severe wrist arthritis, failing non-operative management. We present the first case to our knowledge of total wrist arthroplasty (TWA) for patient with rheumatoid arthritis who is also deaf, requiring sign language for communication with excellent results.
