Abdominal Trauma Surgery: From Lejars to EBM

Abstract

Roberto Cirocchi R and Abe Fingerhut

The approach to emergency abdominal surgery has undergone a profound change primarily because of the change of types of diseases treated and the widespread use of diagnostic methods, such as ultrasound and contrast-enhanced computed tomography. In particular, these two investigative methods have allowed a more accurate preoperative diagnosis, thus avoiding many unnecessary exploratory operations, and leading to conservative treatment of many patients with abdominal trauma.
