Abstract
Abdominal trauma and penetrating injuries are significant causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, requiring a prompt and effective response from healthcare professionals. With the increase in urban violence, motor vehicle accidents, and traumatic events, proper management of these conditions becomes increasingly crucial to ensure the best chance of recovery for patients. For this review, searches were conducted in biomedical databases, including PubMed, Lilacs, and Scielo, using search terms related to abdominal trauma and penetrating injuries. Clinical studies, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses investigating the assessment and surgical management of these conditions were included. Data were extracted and analyzed for methodological quality, major surgical interventions performed, and associated clinical outcomes. The key findings of this review include the description of initial assessment findings, intraoperative findings, surgical interventions performed, intra and postoperative complications, long-term functional outcomes, and economic impact of surgical management of patients with abdominal trauma and penetrating injuries. The surgical management of patients with abdominal trauma and penetrating injuries is complex and challenging, requiring a multidisciplinary and diligent approach to ensure the best possible outcomes. This review highlights the importance of accurate initial assessment, timely surgical intervention, and adequate postoperative care to optimize clinical outcomes and quality of life for these patients.
