Journal Title: Здоров`я дитини - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 47
Abstract
This article summarizes the experience of the conservative approach application in closed injuries of parenchymal organs of the abdominal cavity in children. In our clinic 53 patients with closed injuries of the spleen and liver underwent treatment in 2004–2011. The age of patients ranged from 2.5 to 17 years. Spleen injuries detected in 38 patients (71.7 %), liver damages — in 12 patients (22.6 %), concomitant injury of the liver and spleen occurred in 3 cases (5.7 %). Conservative approach was used in 50 patients (94.3 %), it was successful in 47 cases (94.0 %). Sonographic examination enables to identify and determine accurately the origin of the organ injury, and ultrasound monitoring makes it possible to predict the risk for intraabdominal bleeding and to assess the evolution of the initially identified damages in dynamics.
