    Author: Usov DV, Makhnev VA, Belova ZI, Koptiaeva OIa.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1983 Feb; 130(2):74-7. PubMed ID: 6845588.
    Abstract:
    On the basis of the experience with the treatment of 100 patients with the ruptured spleen (in 44 of them the injury was associated with injuries of other organs of the abdominal cavity, skeleton bones or cranio-cerebral traumas) the authors recommend to use organ-preserving operations more often (in 42-46% of the patients). A technique of one of the operations--a compression ("hammering") of the spleen by a peritoneum grafts--is described.
