Can a trauma cause a vaso occlusive crisis ? If yes , how ?

not as far as I've seen. They tend to just happen on their own regardless of most things. though any thing that causes some level of dehydration tends to contribute. That said, I'm sure you'll find something that says it leads to a crisis. Just realize this isn't typical in the real world as far as crises go.
