Abstract
Twenty four abdominal injury cases with bone fracture of the extremities and trunk were examined retrospectively from January 1994 to December 1997.
We considered the increaed level of transaminase and the fracture of the ribs on the lower right side of the body, and its relation to the damaged liver. On the other hand, we think it is important to consider the relation between the fracture of the ribs on the lower left side of the body and the damage to the spleen.
The fusion of the bones is considered an important factor for ensuring the well being of the whole body and recovery. It is thus necessary to perform this operation as soon as possible after accidents.
