| Popis: | Background: Colon wounds are recognized to be highly associated with intra-abdominal abscess (IAA) after penetrating trauma, whereas gastric wounds are thought to contribute minimally to abscess because of the bactericidal effect of low pH. This study evaluated the impact of stomach or colon wounds, the contribution of other risk factors, and associated abdominal injuries on IAA. Methods: Patients with penetrating colon or stomach wounds during a 10-year period were reviewed and stratified by age, Injury Severity Score, transfusions, and associated abdominal injuries.
