Non-operative management of solid organ injuries in children: An American Pediatric Surgical Association Outcomes and Evidence Based Practice Committee systematic review
2019, Journal of Pediatric SurgeryCitation Excerpt :For blunt liver injury, 36 met study criteria. There were four prospective studies, 28 retrospective studies, and two case controls [1,9–43]. The total number of blunt liver injuries reported in these studies was 11,980, predominantly comprised of grade II and grade III injuries.
Throwing out the "grade" book: management of isolated spleen and liver injury based on hemodynamic status
2008, Journal of Pediatric SurgeryCitation Excerpt :The concept of basing treatment on hemodynamic status is not new. Since the 1980s, numerous authors have discussed management of splenic and hepatic injury based on physiologic response [8-13]. They concluded that ICU monitoring is not mandatory for stable patients and also set triggers for transfusion, outlined parameters for conversion to operative management, and encouraged earlier ambulation after injury.
Innovative minimally invasive pediatric surgery is of therapeutic value for splenic injury
2002, Journal of Pediatric SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Long-term investigation of the functional status of the spleen after rupture treated with laparoscopic fleece-bound sealing is the focus of further studies (Observation period, 14 months to 6 years). The aim of treating splenic injuries is to conserve the organ under conservative conditions.12-14 Volume replacement therapy to stabilize the circulatory situation and close clinical and technical monitoring (sonography) is carried out in the postinjury course, as a rule, whereby there are a large number of algorithms cited.15,16
