Diagnosis and Management of Blunt Trauma Abdomen
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 8
Abstract
Blunt injury as causes of intra-abdominal injuries have been recognized since historical times. Aristotle was the first to record visceral injuries from blunt trauma. Hippocrates and Galen are said to have given apt description of the condition.[1] The development of emergency medical service is an important milestone in the history of clinical and surgical practice of trauma. Greeks required physicians to be present during the battle and Romans established the hospitals close to the battlefield.[1] Advanced imaging techniques like spiral CT scan and MRI has made early detection of blunt abdominal injuries easier
