Keywords:
Liver injury, Kidney Injury, Trauma, Emergency, OperationAbstract
Trauma is the leading cause of death under the age of forty. Of all traumatic deaths, abdominal trauma is responsible for 10%. The findings to look for abdominal trauma are the following: Hemoperitoneum, Contrast blush consistent with active extravasation, Laceration: Linear shaped hypodense areas, Hematomas: oval or round shaped areas, Contusions: vague ill-defined hypodense areas that are less well perfused, Pneumoperitoneum, Devscularization of organs or parts of organs, and Subscapular hematomas.
