Title: [The classification of penetrating gunshot wounds of the abdomen]. Author: Gurin NN, Kosachev ID, Novitskiĭ LV. Journal: Voen Med Zh; 1992; (4-5):61-3. PubMed ID: 1523819. Abstract: The present-day classification of gunshot penetrating abdominal wounds has a several number of limitations, namely: sometimes it is difficult to classify correctly the gravity of wounds, thus patients with different gravity status frequently form the same group of wounded. The authors propose to concretize the existing classification. A new variant will provide for a straight definition between the groups, the wounded who belong to the same group could be comparable in their gravity status. Generally, this new classification give a more complete and precise notion concerning the character of modern gunshot penetrating abdominal injuries.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
