title: [Rupture of the spleen in patients with multiple injuries. Current diagnostic methods. Apropos of 60 cases].
abstract: The authors report 60 cases of severe multiple injuries and study present methods permitting a rapid diagnosis of latent rupture of the spleen. Purely clinical methods are today supplemented by paraclinical investigations. e.g. --intra-abdominal catheterisation; --peritoneal wash-out; --laparoscopy; --and, above all, arteriography. The authors use these methods and weigh the advantages and disadvantages of each.
