Rescue rate
The main objective is to show that splenic embolization improves salvage rate at one month in a population of hemostatically stable closed splenic trauma patients with a high risk of a splenectomy. The primary endpoint is an immunocompetent spleen i.e. intact or treated by surgical methods for splenic preservation of at least 50% of splenic vascularized tissue in the event of secondary laparotomy or with necrosis of less than 50% by volume. This criterion will be validated by a review of the initial scans by a panel of two senior radiologists blinded to the study arm.
Time frame: Splenic Rescue at 30 days
Mortality
Time frame: At 1 and 6 months
