Popis: Of 225 patients with multiple injuries and a high lesional score, 100 presented traumatic abdominal lesions. Comparison of the two groups confirmed both the usefulness and validity of a traumatic index and the reliability of abdominal puncture-lavage. Abdominal complications were analyzed. Mortality in all multiple injury cases, with or without abdominal lesions, was identical in this series where emergency surgery was performed only for lesions affecting vital organs, the mean age of patients with abdominal lesion being significantly lower. An attitude to adopt when deciding whether surgery is necessary is proposed.
