CLINICAL AND SUBCLINICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF LIVER INJURY TREATED CONSERVATIVELY
Main Article Content
Abstract
Through a study of 140 patients with liver injury who were treated conservatively at 115 People's Hospital from January 2016 to December 2020. Liver injury in blunt abdominal trauma is common at the age of 21‒49. The average age is 33.5. Male patients are more common than female. The main cause is traffic accidents. Abdominal pain is the most constant physical symptom. Blood loss is usually mild to moderate. All cases of liver rupture patients admitted to the hospital have elevated liver enzymes, the more severe the liver damage, the higher the liver enzymes. Regarding the location of liver damage on computed tomography, most of the lesions were located in the right liver, with the highest percentage of lower segment VI lesions. For the left lobe of the liver, segment IV lesions are most common. Regarding the level of damage according to AAST, grade III is the most common.
