title: Role of ultrasound in the evaluation of blunt abdominal trauma.
abstract: Twenty nine cases of intra abdominal injuries who became stable after initial shock were selected for ultrasound examination. Ultrasound detected intra-abdominal hematomas in 19/29 (65.51%). These cases were managed conservatively. The different types of hematomas encountered were renal, hepatic, splenic, retroperitoneal and parietal.
