Abstract:
Patterned injuries often remain unrecognized by emergency department personnel. Immediate recognition of a simple, superficial patterned injury may result in prompt and possibly life-saving treatment. A fall off a bicycle with a patterned abdominal bruise should suggest potentially life-threatening trauma.
