Title: [Thoracic and abdominal wounds]. Author: Martinod E, Lang-Lazdunski L, Liard O, Jancovici R. Journal: Rev Prat; 1997 May 01; 47(9):964-70. PubMed ID: 9208685. Abstract: Thoracic and abdominal wounds are characterized by their diversity, their possible danger and the necessity of a successful diagnosis and therapy strategy. Management of thoracic wounds and indications of surgical treatment are conditioned by airway and hemodynamic states, paraclinical exams and chest drainage. The approach of abdominal wounds is based upon their possible penetrating character. Surgical indications, even if very discussed, are still wider. Thoraco-abdominal wounds could concern the diaphragm and are remarkable for their surgical strategy.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
