EP14: Traumatic Liver Injuries
from Sterile Field Guide Hosted by Sterile Field Guide
Hey friends! In this episode we talk all about traumatic liver injuries. Combined with the spleen, these are the two most commonly injured organs in blunt trauma. We review some important anatomy, like the portal triad and talk about the Pringle maneuver, the physical exam and imaging findings for traumatic liver injuries, and talk about the management, both operative and non-operative for liver injuries. We discuss the INR of cryo, interventional radiology procedures for liver bleeding, a REALLY interesting management strategy for hepatic artery bleeding, and surgical approaches to damaged livers. I hope you enjoy!
