Abstract:
Objective To study the characteristics and treatments of occlusive abdominal injuries during pregnancy. Methods The clinical data of 37 cases with occlusive abdominal injuries admitted in hospital from June 1993 to June 2003 were collected for study. Results All 37 cases received operative treatment, of which two cases complicated by enterorrhexis in the early pregnancy and one by retroperitoneal hematoma were managed using laparoscope. Laparotomy was performed in other 34 cases, of which eight received caesaren section because of placental abruption and enlarged uterus that impeded the management for intraabdominal organs. Of all, 33 cases (33/37,89%) were cured and four (4/37, 11%) died. The postoperative incidence of complications was 16% (6/37). The complications included abdominal cavity infection in two cases (5%), pulmonary infection in three (8%) and multiple organ failure in one (3%). Conclusion Besides obstetrics' diseases, we must keep alert about the injury of abdominal organs during the management of trauma. Accurate diagnosis and timely treatment will win time to save the lives of mother and infant.
