OBJECTIVE: Bull-horn injuries (BHI) are unique and there is reduced published literature about it. We present an analysis of a 11-year BHI case series.

METHOD: Study of 138 cases developed during a 11-year period with hospitalization admission greater than 24 hours with diagnosis of BHI/contusion. We classified patients in two groups: group A, patients undergoing procedures under general anaesthesia and group B undergoing procedures under local anaesthesia. Variables: age, sex, date, hospitalization length, main region affected, Comprehensive complication index (CCI, ISS, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, stay and mortality. Statistical analysis: t-Student test, ANOVA, χ2 and linear or logistic regression.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: ISS was related to hospital stay, CCI, ICU admission and type of treatment applied. The comparative statistical analysis of variables between both groups determined a significant difference in age, ISS and hospitalization length, being greater in those belonging to group A. There is a more risk of undergoing surgery by increasing age, ISS and presenting the wounds in thorax-abdomen-pelvis area. CCI may be a good method of quantifying postoperatory morbidity in polytraumatized patients or in other areas besides the abdomen.
