Area of Science:

  • Trauma Surgery
  • Hepatobiliary Surgery
  • Surgical Critical Care

Context:

  • Severe hepatic injuries pose significant challenges in trauma care.
  • Effective surgical management is crucial for patient survival and recovery.
  • Limited data exists on optimizing surgical outcomes for complex liver trauma.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of surgical interventions for severe hepatic injuries (Grades III-V).
  • To identify key surgical techniques that improve patient outcomes.
  • To analyze factors contributing to mortality in patients with hepatic trauma.

Summary:

  • A retrospective analysis of 237 patients with hepatic trauma over 8 years was conducted.
  • Surgical interventions included omental packing, debridement, hepatectomy, and vascular control techniques.

  • 180 patients underwent surgery, with 154 achieving successful outcomes. The overall mortality rate was 11.8%.

    • Impact:

    • Accurate liver packing and adjunctive procedures are effective for retrohepatic venous injuries.
    • Improved surgical strategies can reduce mortality in severe liver trauma.
    • This research contributes to evidence-based guidelines for managing complex hepatic injuries.
