We present two cases of major intra-abdominal aortic injury in which the bleeding could not be controlled by cross clamping the thoracic aorta. Multiple collateral pathways around the clamped aorta may have rendered this procedure almost ineffective. In cases of major intra-abdominal arterial disruption,

Vasopressin was used in ten critically ill patients with massive intra-abdominal bleeding unresponsive to conventional therapy. Vasopressin controlled bleeding in four patients, three of whom had continued to bleed following laparotomy for haemostasis; in two other patients, bleeding was reduced. Al
