What is Pringle maneuver to arrest hemorrhage is: and explain in detail?
Pringle maneuver is clamping of the hepatoduodenal ligament by traumatic clamp across the foramen of Winslow to temporarily stop complete vascular inflow to the liver. The hepatoduodenal ligament contains the hepatic artery, portal vein and the CBD.
Although the Pringle maneuver was initially described (by James Hogarth Pringle) for controlling bleeding due to traumatic liver injury, it is commonly used during elective hepatic resections.
