Abstract
GHEZZO, Andrés C; ADRI, Daniel O; GENTILE, Ernestina and LEVY YETATI, Ezequiel. Multidetector CT Findings in Splenic and Liver Trauma. Rev. argent. radiol. [online]. 2018, vol.82, n.4, pp.168-174. ISSN 1852-9992. http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.1055/s-0038-1657774.
Blunt Abdominal Trauma can cause lesions in several abdominal solid organs. The spleen and liver are most frequently injured in such situations. Multi Slice Computed Tomography (MSCT) is the method of choice in the evaluation of patients who suffered a closed abdominal trauma to provide a quick and accurate diagnosis and allow faster and more effective treatment. This pictorial essay aims to describe the most frequent spleen and liver injuries in blunt abdominal trauma.
Keywords : abdominal injuries; diagnostic imaging; tomography; liver/injuries; splenic rupture.
