    Abstract:
    The authors share their experiences with diagnosing and surgical treatment of 1792 patients with mechanical combined traumas. The average age of the patients was (31.6 +/- 1.4) years. All the patients were divided into two groups according to the medico-diagnostic methods. The traditional methods of diagnosis and treatment were used in 811 patients of the first group. Complications took place in 39.2%, lethality was 28.4%. The diagnosis in 981 patients of the second group included an ultrasound investigation, computed tomography, videothoraco- and laparoscopy. The surgical treatment was based on the objective multifactorial assessment of the trauma severity and determination of the prognosis criteria. Complications developed in 24.8% of the patients. Lethality was 19.5%.
