Abstract
Blunt abdominal trauma is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among all age groups. Blunt abdominal trauma is one of the most challenging conditions where rapid and accurate investigations are essential for definitive management. MDCT provides supreme anatomical and physiological information that can differentiate trivial injuries from those requiring intervention. MDCT data frequently increases the diagnostic confidence of the surgeons, influences clinical management decisions, and plays an important role in decreasing the rates of unnecessary exploratory laparotomy. AIM OF THE WORK: The aim of this study was to assess the role of MDCT in the detection and characterization of different intra-abdominal blunt trauma in adults. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: The study was carried out on 30 patients with blunt abdominal trauma based on clinical findings referred to the Radiology Department of Alexandria University Hospital. Inclusion criteria: • Patients with blunt intra-abdominal trauma aging from 18 till 65 years old. Exclusion criteria: • Patients with blunt intra-abdominal trauma aging less than 18 years old and more than 65 years old. The study included the following: - Complete history taking. - Routine computed tomography abdominal non contrast scan. - Intra-venous contrast administration with obtaining arterial, venous and delayed phases.
