    Abstract:
    Computed tomography was performed in 38 patients with a recent abdominal trauma. Results of this procedure are presented in lesions of the spleen (4 cases), liver (15 cases), pancreas (6 cases), gastrointestinal tract (2 cases), kidney (15 cases). Indications of computed tomography in emergency are only limited by the small number of units. Computed tomography should play an important role in the management of patients with a severe abdominal trauma.
