[Outcome of primary surgical management of liver trauma].
We evaluated retrospectively 43 patients with liver trauma undergoing laparotomy between 1/89 and 12/95. Blunt trauma (27 patients) and penetrating trauma (16 patients) to the liver had a mortality of 37% and 0%, respectively. The overall mortality was 23.3% and was significantly related to concomitant injuries (p = 0.002), whereas age, severity of the liver trauma as well as the surgical treatment had no significant influence on the outcome.
