Comparative Study
[Perforation of hollow viscera in abdominal injuries].
This is a retrospective study to evaluate our results in the treatment of abdominal trauma. ⋯ The most common surgical procedure practised for injuries to the small intestine was simple suture, and for injuries to the colon, colostomy. The most usual surgical procedures in penetrating trauma were simple suture in all small intestine injuries and for colonic lesions half had primary closure and half suture plus colostomy.
