In both countries, the most common causes of polytrauma are car accidents, andthe severity of injuries increased significantly with age. The average age ofpatients in the Austrian hospital was higher, and patients with a higheraverage ISS value were discharged home without hospitalization.

The celiac artery (AC), the cranial mesenteric artery (AMC), and both renalarteries (AR) departed in both sexes of the domestic pig (N = 13, weight 28-33kg), Přeštice black-pied breed, from the abdominal aorta most often in acaudally sharp angle. Aorta narrowed caudally, in the segment between the ACand AR from 1.1 cm to 0.9 cm (by 19%). The largest branch was the cranialmesenteric artery (0.7 cm). The average values of the lumen root diameter (P)of the measured arteries were: P (AC) = 0.6 cm, P (AMC) = 0.7 cm, P (ARD, ARS)= 0.5 cm. In females, the right renal artery was wider (p = 0.007). Thegreatest variability was proved at the exit angles of the AC and ARS(coefficient of variation > 30, standard deviation > 20).
