title: Management of liver trauma.
abstract: A ten-year experience with the management of liver trauma is reported. The diagnostic approach is examined, stressing the role of selective arteriography. The management of the 78 observed cases is described. The need for biliary drainage to prevent postoperative leakages, is supported. Overall mortality in this series was 16.6%.
