Resumen

El trauma abdominal cerrado puede ser causa de lesiones en varios órganos sólidos, siendo el bazo y el hígado más frecuentemente afectados en ese tipo de situaciones. La tomografía computada multicorte (TCMC), es el método de imágenes de elección en la evaluación de pacientes que sufrieron un trauma cerrado abdominal gracias a que aporta un rápido y preciso diagnóstico y permite un eficaz tratamiento. El objetivo de este trabajo, es describir el espectro de las lesiones esplénicas y hepáticas encontradas en el trauma abdominal cerrado.

Abstract

Blunt Abdominal Trauma can cause lesions in several abdominal solid organs. The spleen and liver are most frequently injured in such situations. Multi Slice Computed Tomography (MSCT) is the method of choice in the evaluation of patients who suffered a closed abdominal trauma to provide a quick and accurate diagnosis and allow faster and more effective treatment. This pictorial essay aims to describe the most frequent spleen and liver injuries in blunt abdominal trauma.

Palabras Clave
