    Abstract:
    Mortality in blunt hepatic trauma is still high, death being most frequently caused by hemorrhage. Associated injuries are present in nearly all cases. A variety of possible surgical procedures allow treatment tailored to fit the individual situation. Even the sophisticated intensive care required by the frequent posttraumatic complications is not a substitute for adequate surgery.
