Delayed diagnosis or inadequate management of popliteal artery injury can result in limb ischemia, amputation, and long-term disability. This study aimed to compare the treatment outcomes of popliteal artery injury between different medical centers and to reconsider the optimal protocol at our institution.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Medical records of patients sustaining traumatic popliteal artery injury from 2011 to 2022 at two institutions (one hospital: Group A; the other hospital: Group B) were retrospectively reviewed.

Two patients in Group A and four patients in Group B exhibited contrast-medium resumption (average deficit: 57 mm and 60 mm, respectively). The time from injury to reperfusion was significantly shorter in Group A than in Group B (300 min vs. 749 min,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.05). Group A underwent four temporary vascular shunting procedures, four external fixations, six fasciotomies, and five bypass grafting procedures. In Group B, temporary vascular shunt (TVS) was not used in any patient; however, three, two, and three patients underwent external fixation, fasciotomy, and bypass grafting, respectively. One patient in each group required above-the-knee amputation. The mean Lysholm score was 80.4 points in Group A and 72.0 points in Group B.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>TVS considerably reduces the reperfusion time.
