Abdominal trauma has the priority in diagnosis and therapy after assuring cardiorespiratory function. Abdominal injuries are seen in 2%-5% of all accidents, often as polytrauma. In the FRG there are mainly blunt traumas (90%). Abdominal trauma is the leading injury in 51.6% of fatal traffic accidents. The frequency of the organ traumas ...
Tc-99m sulfur colloid scintigraphy can detect and locate active lower gastrointestinal bleeding. The same principles apply to the detection and location of active intra-abdominal or pelvic hemorrhage following blunt abdominal trauma. We report two patients with abdominal bleeding who were correctly diagnosed by this method. As part of ...
The spleen and liver are the most frequently injured organs during blunt and penetrating abdominal trauma. Emergency laparotomy is crucial for early control of bleeding and to prevent "secondary" injury as a result of physiologic splanchnic vasoconstriction and free oxygen radicals. Altogether 98 patients with ...
A 46 year-old white male with fever of unknown origin demonstrated a multiloculated hepatic cyst on abdominal CT. Persistent fever and leukocytosis prompted Tc-99m sulfur colloid liver-spleen and gallium-67 citrate imaging to identify a possible liver abscess.

In general, the spleen accompanied by abnormal abdomen is hypertrophied. However, if the spleen size is originally small, it is hard to detect the splenic enlargement due to abnormal abdomen by simply measure the size. On the contrary, the spleen size of a person having a normal abdomen may be large by nature. Therefore, measuring the ...
We report on a case of multiple hepatic abscesses in an immunodeficient patient where initial radiologic evaluation by ultrasonography and computed tomography confused early management by failing to demonstrate the abscesses and by suggesting other diagnoses.
