Although resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) may be effective in trauma management, its effect in patients with severe multiple torso trauma remains unclear. We performed a retrospective study to evaluate trauma management with REBOA in hemodynamically unstable patients...
