    Lethality from liver trauma remains high, with shock and blood loss as primary causes of death. Optimizing surgical treatment requires reliable hemostasis methods like laser and plasma radiation.

    Area of Science:

    • Trauma surgery
    • Hepatobiliary surgery

    Context:

    • Liver injuries present a significant challenge in trauma care.
    • High mortality rates (20-78%) are associated with closed liver injuries.
    • Shock and hemorrhage are the leading causes of death in these patients.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze current lethality rates for liver trauma.
    • To identify key factors contributing to mortality.
    • To explore optimized surgical interventions for liver injuries.

    Summary:

    • Analysis of 135 direct observations and 3931 literature cases reveals persistent high mortality from liver trauma.
    • Hemorrhage and shock remain the critical determinants of patient outcomes.
    • Effective hemostasis, utilizing laser/plasma radiation and temporary measures, is crucial for improving survival.

    Impact:

    • Highlights the urgent need for advanced hemostatic techniques in managing liver trauma.
    • Suggests that incorporating novel energy sources can potentially reduce mortality.
    • Emphasizes the importance of optimizing both permanent and temporary hemostasis strategies.
