    Author: Bao ST, Wang SM, Lin MS.
    Journal: Chin J Traumatol; 2006 Apr; 9(2):105-7. PubMed ID: 16533437.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To improve the cure rate of patients with abdominal visceral injury complicated by craniocerebral injury. METHODS: Clinical data of 176 cases of abdominal visceral injury complicated by craniocerebral injury were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: In this series, 44 cases died and the mortality was 25.0. The main cause of death is abdominal visceral injury combined with shock and severe craniocerebral injury. CONCLUSIONS: It is essential to improve the cure rate by accurate diagnosis at early stage. Abdominal paracentesis and CT should be performed promptly and dynamically. Priority should be given to the treatment of life-threatening injuries.
