چکیده

The optimal management of patients with abdominal injuries has been debated for decades. A descriptive study was performed and analyzed in order to have a base for a better understanding of the management of abdominal trauma patients. In this study, 100 patients admitted to Clinical Emergency County Hospital of Brasov, with blunt and penetrating abdominal trauma were analyzed.
