Current Trends in the Management of Blunt Solid Organ Injuries

Abstract: The management of patients with solid organ injuries has changed since the introduction of technically advanced imaging tools, such as ultrasonography and multiple scan computerized tomography, interventional radiological techniques and modern intensive care units. In spite of this development in the management of these patients, major solid organ traumas can still be challenging. There has been great improvement in the non-operative management (NOM) of intra-abdominal solid organ injury in recent decades. In … Show more

“…The method of choice for assessment of liver damage is CT scan and it shows different types of liver injury such as hematoma, laceration and bleeding. 19,20 Conclusion Based on present study, road traffic injury was the most common cause of blunt abdominal trauma. CT scan with contrast is a useful imaging technique for assessment of internal organ damage in blunt abdominal trauma.…”

“…The factors that have been reported to predict the failure of NOM of splenic injuries are hemodynamic stability, need for blood transfusion, blood pressure at admission, ISS, GCS score, age, grade of injury, and degree of hemoperitoneum [1,5,[8][9][10][11].…”

“…La prise en charge des contusions abdominales a été révolutionnée, il y a près de 3 décennies par le traitement non opératoire (TNO) (Rutledge 1995). Ce traitement s'est d'abord imposé dans la prise en charge des traumatismes spléniques chez l'enfant puis son indication s'est étendue à l'adulte et pour de nombreuses lésions viscérales (Taviloglu 2009). Le TNO est actuellement la modalité principale de la prise en charge des contusions de l'abdomen, avec un recul net des indications opératoires (Raza 2013).…”

“…Le TNO est actuellement la modalité principale de la prise en charge des contusions de l'abdomen, avec un recul net des indications opératoires (Raza 2013). Pour être éligible à ce traitement des critères objectifs ont été définis notamment la stabilité hémodynamique, l'absence de perforation digestive, la disponibilité permanente du bloc opératoire et de son équipe (Taviloglu 2009, Raza 2013. La faisabilité du TNO a été démontrée dans les conditions techniques limitées qui prévalent dans les pays à faible revenus (Traoré 2010).…”
