Appropriate Management of Splenic Trauma
Introduction: Inappropriate management of splenic trauma is related to high rates of morbidity and mortality, and an effective understanding of its mechanisms is vital. Closed abdominal or thoracoabdominal trauma, such as localized contusions from various incidents, is typically the cause of splenic injuries. Splenic trauma must be promptly evaluated in the context of urgency, and a surgical approach must be performed according to the degree of injury. Methods: This is a retrospective, quantitative, and cross-sectional analysis of the medical records of operated-on patients.
