Hepatic hemostasis with packing in complex abdominal traumatic lesions : indications and postoperative outcomes

UNLABELLED: The purpose of this study is to review our postoperative outcomes with liver packing in complex abdominal trauma.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: 76 liver trauma were admitted for operative procedures in the Surgical Department of City Hospital Timisoara between April 1994 - September 2009 and 16 cases were identified in our series as requiring liver packing. In all cases, this method was efficient, with no postoperative bleeding. In the same time, there were specific complications such as bile leak or abdominal collections.

CONCLUSIONS: despite a second procedure for packs removal and the possibility for specific complications, liver packing is an efficient method for severe liver trauma or complex abdominal lesions.
