Popis: | The profile and management of self-inflicted abdominal stab wounds (SI-ASW) patients is still obscure.

Predictors for non-therapeutic laparotomy/laparoscopy (non-TL) in SI-ASW patients were identified. SI-ASW patients were older, had more females and behavioral disorders, similar physiology, but a lower Injury Severity Score. They had more laparotomies overall (54 versus 48%, p |
