Imaging & Intervention in Abdominal Trauma.2004
This textbook provides a comprehensive overview of the imaging and management of abdominal trauma. Detailed attention is paid to pathophysiology, clinical symptoms and findings, all relevant imaging modalities and other tests employed to evaluate abdominal injuries at the time of admission of the trauma victim. Types of management surgical, conservative, interventional radiological, and endoscopic are described in depth. Posttraumatic complications are discussed, including those arising from treatment. There are general chapters on patient resuscitation, logistics, and medicolegal issues. Besides visceral abdominal injuries, lumbar spine and pelvic bone fractures are discussed. An appendix lists all the major trauma classifications relating to abdominal injuries. The book is richly illustrated. Its major advantage is its completeness, encompassing, as it does, mechanisms of trauma, clinical findings, and imaging and treatment options.
