Abdominal wounds. Open injuries (wounds) of the abdomen Symptoms of penetrating abdominal injury

In the practice of surgeons, the most common penetrating abdominal wounds are gunshot and stab wounds. In such patients, an examination of the abdomen is carried out immediately after restoration of airway patency, adequate breathing and blood circulation. Indications for laparotomy are set based on signs of damage to internal organs requiring surgical treatment. Urgent surgical intervention is required for patients in a state of shock and with signs of peritonitis, patients in whom blood is released through a nasogastric tube or from the rectum, patients in whom free gas is detected in the abdominal cavity or in the retroperitoneal space, patients in whom internal organs are visible, as well as those taken to the hospital with a knife stuck in their stomach. In such cases, intravenous urography (IVP) is urgently performed, which can quickly identify the presence of two functioning kidneys. Intravenous urography is performed not so much to detect damage to the urinary system, but to make sure that the kidney on the uninjured side is functioning well (extremely necessary information in cases where the question of performing a nephrectomy arises during surgery).

Diagnosis in patients with gunshot wounds is quite simple. In contrast, the penetrating nature of stab wounds is more difficult to establish. These two types of penetrating abdominal wounds will be described below.

Gunshot wounds, in which the projectile penetrates the body from the chest to the hips, can cause damage to the abdominal organs. Of all penetrating gunshot wounds to the abdomen, 98% cause internal organ damage that requires immediate surgical intervention. However, in some cases, the nature of the gunshot wound may cause doubts among doctors. This situation occurs mainly with tangential gunshot wounds to the abdomen. In such cases, laparocentesis is performed, and if examination of the fluid obtained from the abdominal cavity during peritoneal lavage reveals more than 10.0 x 1012 red blood cells/L, the wound is penetrating and emergency laparotomy is required. Gunshot wounds of the thoracoabdominal region, back, lateral abdomen and pelvic region, which cause doctors to doubt their penetrating nature, are quite rare. In such cases, diagnostic tactics should be the same as for stab wounds of the abdomen.

For stab wounds of the anterior abdominal wall, doctors’ tactics may be different. It is always important to remember that only 50% of all abdominal stab wounds penetrate the abdominal cavity, and only 50% of them cause internal organ damage requiring emergency surgical intervention. In our opinion, the main task of examining such patients is to identify victims who have indications for emergency surgical intervention. Such patients must be quickly prepared for surgery. Conscious patients with stable hemodynamic parameters can be examined several times over time so as not to miss a penetrating wound. If they show signs of developing peritonitis or shock, surgery is necessary. All other patients can be discharged from the hospital after 24-48 hours. Examples when, during dynamic observation and examination, doubts about the diagnosis remain are quite rare. In these cases, many authors recommend using all possible diagnostic techniques, including laparocentesis and peritoneal lavage, local wound exploration (debridement and revision), diagnostic laparoscopy, and, finally, diagnostic laparotomy. Of all these techniques, the most informative for diagnosing a penetrating abdominal wound and setting indications for emergency surgical intervention, in our opinion, is laparocentesis and peritoneal lavage. There are three types of abdominal stab wounds that present significant diagnostic difficulties. These are thoracoabdominal wounds, wounds of the back and lateral abdomen. With thoracoabdominal wounds, the wound channel can enter the chest and penetrate through the diaphragm into the abdominal cavity. In this case, abdominal organs can often be damaged. The presence in such patients of signs of wound penetration into the abdominal cavity is an indication for emergency surgery. When examining these cases, we used laparocentesis and peritoneal lavage. The presence of erythrocytes in the fluid coming from the abdominal cavity in an amount of more than 10.0 x 1012/l was evidence of the penetrating nature of the injury. In such cases, drainage of the pleural cavity and laparotomy were performed, during which the defect in the diaphragm was sutured, and then adequate surgical intervention, depending on the damage found in the abdominal cavity. Stab wounds of the back and lateral abdomen can cause both damage to the retroperitoneal organs and the abdominal cavity. Injuries to the retroperitoneal part of the duodenum and colon are especially dangerous. In such patients, we also used laparocentesis and peritoneal lavage. The presence of erythrocytes in the fluid coming from the abdominal cavity in an amount of more than 10.0 x 1012/l indicates the penetrating nature of the injury. In such cases, emergency laparotomy was performed to eliminate damage to the abdominal organs and retroperitoneum. If the content of red blood cells in the fluid obtained from the abdominal cavity during peritoneal lavage was less than 10.0 x 1012/L, we performed a computed tomography scan of the abdomen with intravenous contrast agent injection into the duodenum and colon. With this method of computed tomography with “triple” contrast, the accuracy of the method in diagnosing damage to the organs of the retroperitoneal space is more than 95%. Stab wounds of the pelvis can cause damage to the organs of the gastrointestinal tract, organs of the urinary system, as well as the internal genital organs in women. To identify the penetrating nature of the wound, we also used laparocentesis and peritoneal lavage. In addition, all patients with stab wounds of the pelvic region underwent rigid proctosigmoidoscopy (sigmoidoscopy), cysto-urethrography, and women, in addition, underwent a vaginal speculum examination. Moreover, if the content of red blood cells in the fluid obtained from the abdominal cavity exceeded 10.0 x 1012/l, or other studies revealed signs of damage to internal organs, emergency surgery was performed. All other patients were followed up.

The first guidelines are the position of the wounded person and his behavior. A victim with damage to the abdominal organs tries to lie still. He tries not to change the initial position he has adopted. More often the wounded person lies on his back or on his side with his legs bent. The inspection begins with appearance assessments wounded.

A haggard, suffering face, a constant request: “Give me something to drink!”

First of all, the location of the damage is determined. Next, the severity of the condition is clarified, level of consciousness preservation and the wounded person’s reaction to the environment and the doctor’s interview. If the wounded person is conscious, the complaints and circumstances of the injury are clarified. Then the pulse, its frequency and filling are examined. As a rule, there is tachycardia, which is more significant the more severe the injury and blood loss; determine frequency, rhythm and depth breathing.

After this, they begin to identify local symptoms. If there is an open injury, check the location of the wound(s), its discharge and find out whether there is prolapse of internal organs (intestinal loops, omentum). If this is the case, then the diagnosis naturally becomes completely clear.

However, it should be noted that prolapse of viscera with penetrating abdominal wounds is observed in only 11% of the wounded. Then the participation of the abdominal wall in the act of breathing is checked.

If the abdominal organs are damaged, the anterior abdominal wall either does not participate in the act of breathing, or its movements are limited. This symptom is very important.

Only when all the above steps have been completed do careful palpation begin.

At the same time, the degree of rigidity of the anterior abdominal wall and its tension in certain areas are determined.

They check the Shchetkin-Blumberg symptom, a symptom of percussion pain.

Listen to intestinal peristalsis (at least one minute). Then they begin percussion of the abdomen to identify the presence of fluid (blood, exudate) in the abdominal cavity, as well as liver dullness and the level of protrusion of the bladder above the pubis. After this, bladder function is checked (the patient is asked to urinate). If spontaneous urination is impaired, bladder catheterization is performed. Pay attention to the amount of urine excreted or released.

Urine is assessed macroscopically.

The presence of dysuric phenomena is observed not only with damage to the bladder and urethra, but also with damage to the abdominal organs and retroperitoneal space.

The final stage of the clinical examination of the patient (in the hospital) is a rectal examination.

At the stage of first and first aid

application of an aseptic dressing, anesthesia, drinking water is prohibited.

Qualified assistance: victims with ongoing internal bleeding - go to the operating room, stop internal bleeding against the background of intensive anti-shock therapy.

Primary surgical treatment of wounds - in the operating room.

Surgery it is safest at a stable systolic pressure in the range of 90-100 mmHg. and diastolic not lower than 30 mm Hg, pulse rate 100 per minute, respiratory rate up to 25 per minute and shock index less than one.

Laparotomy is preferably performed under intubation anesthesia using relaxants. In time, it should take 1.5-2 hours. During this time, it is necessary to perform all interventions on the damaged organs. Such harsh conditions are dictated by the special situation at the stages of medical care, when other wounded are awaiting surgery in the anti-shock ward in the reception and triage department. The incision of the abdominal wall during laparotomy should provide the opportunity for a detailed examination of all abdominal organs and retroperitoneal space. If necessary, the midline incision can be extended upward and downward and supplemented with a transverse incision to the right or left. If you are fully confident that damage to the abdominal organs is limited to a certain area, a transverse incision is used above or below the navel with the intersection of the rectus abdominis muscle. Incisions parallel to the costal arch are used when the diagnosis of injury to the (isolated) liver or spleen is beyond doubt.

Surgical intervention for injuries to the abdominal organs is reduced to stopping bleeding, inspection of the abdominal organs and retroperitoneal space, introduction of drying tampons, actual surgical intervention on the organs, toilet of the abdominal cavity, and suturing of the abdominal wall.

After opening the abdominal cavity to identify the nature of the damage and draw up a plan for the operation, a sequential examination of its organs is required.

If blood is found in the abdominal cavity, it is necessary first of all, by removing it with tampons or an aspirator, to find the source of the bleeding and stop it .

If an operation for ongoing intra-abdominal bleeding is started against the background of decompensated shock, then after completing its main stage - identifying the source of bleeding and hemostasis - the operation should be suspended until hemodynamics are stabilized against the background of ongoing massive infusion-transfusion therapy. Only then can you continue and complete the operation

Open or penetrating wounds to the abdominal cavity are most often caused by firearms or cutting and stabbing objects.

In the practice of surgeons, the most common penetrating abdominal wounds are gunshot and stab wounds. In such patients, an examination of the abdomen is carried out immediately after restoration of airway patency, adequate breathing and blood circulation. Indications for laparotomy are set based on signs of damage to internal organs requiring surgical treatment.

In such cases, intravenous urography (IVP) is urgently performed, which can quickly identify the presence of two functioning kidneys. Intravenous urography is performed not so much to detect damage to the urinary system, but to make sure that the kidney on the uninjured side is functioning well (extremely necessary information in cases where the question of performing a nephrectomy arises during surgery).

Gunshot wounds of the thoracoabdominal region, back, lateral abdomen and pelvic region, which cause doctors to doubt their penetrating nature, are quite rare. In such cases, diagnostic tactics should be the same as for stab wounds of the abdomen.



For stab wounds of the anterior abdominal wall, doctors’ tactics may be different. It is always important to remember that only 50% of all abdominal stab wounds penetrate the abdominal cavity, and only 50% of them cause internal organ damage requiring emergency surgical intervention.

The presence of erythrocytes in the fluid coming from the abdominal cavity in an amount of more than 10.0 × 1012/l indicates the penetrating nature of the injury. In such cases, emergency laparotomy was performed to eliminate damage to the abdominal organs and retroperitoneum. If the content of red blood cells in the fluid obtained from the abdominal cavity during peritoneal lavage was less than 10.0 × 1012/l, we performed a computed tomography scan of the abdomen with the introduction of a contrast agent intravenously, into the duodenum and into the colon. With this method of computed tomography with “triple” contrast, the accuracy of the method in diagnosing damage to the organs of the retroperitoneal space is more than 95%. Stab wounds of the pelvis can cause damage to the organs of the gastrointestinal tract, organs of the urinary system, as well as the internal genital organs in women. To identify the penetrating nature of the wound, we also used laparocentesis and peritoneal lavage. In addition, all patients with stab wounds of the pelvic region underwent rigid proctosigmoidoscopy (sigmoidoscopy), cysto-urethrography, and women, in addition, underwent a vaginal speculum examination. Moreover, if the content of erythrocytes in the fluid obtained from the abdominal cavity exceeded 10.0 × 1012/l, or other studies revealed signs of damage to internal organs, emergency surgery was performed. All other patients were followed up.

Most often, with penetrating stab wounds of the abdomen, the liver (in 37% of cases), spleen (7%) and kidneys (5%) are damaged from parenchymal organs. However, in general, hollow organs are most often damaged by stab and penetrating wounds of the abdomen. Their hollow organs are most often damaged in the small intestine (26% of cases), stomach (19%) and large intestine (16.5%).

With penetrating abdominal wounds, only the peritoneum may be injured. In this case, the intestines and omentum may fall out into the wound, being located between the muscles or falling out.

In the vast majority of cases, penetrating abdominal wounds are accompanied by injuries to the abdominal organs (liver, spleen, stomach, intestines, mesentery, bladder).

Symptoms. Symptoms of injury to the abdominal organs vary. In the first hours after injury, slight tension in the abdominal muscles usually appears; in some cases there is shock from the very beginning. Of the other symptoms, the most important are those of internal bleeding and irritation of the peritoneum. The pulse in such wounded people is usually frequent and weak. When the stomach and intestines are injured, tension in the abdominal walls is sharply expressed, which does not go away even with the patient in a resting position. When pressure is placed on the abdomen, patients complain of sharp pain. In most cases, vomiting is observed.

In addition to these symptoms, symptoms of injury to individual abdominal organs may be observed. When the liver and spleen are injured, symptoms of internal bleeding, increased dullness of the liver and spleen with dullness spreading to the right or left iliac region are observed. When the stomach is injured, bloody vomiting occurs and in some cases (rarely) bloating and tympanitis develop. When the large intestines are injured, in addition to the symptoms common to all abdominal injuries, bloody stools and a fecal odor from the wound are observed.

Diagnosis of penetrating abdominal injury not always easy. If there is a prolapsed omentum or intestine, recognition is not difficult. The leakage of bile and intestinal contents from the wound facilitates the diagnosis. Severe, increasing anemia, a drop in pulse, and fluid accumulation may indicate bleeding.

When the gastrointestinal tract is injured, tension in the abdominal muscles and chest type of breathing are sharply expressed. Vomiting with blood and bloody stools are observed.

Treatment . If a penetrating wound is suspected, the wound of the abdominal wall is expanded, i.e., primary treatment is performed, during which the diagnosis is clarified. In the event of a penetrating wound or prolapse of viscera, transection is performed immediately, if possible. The operation gives good results before the onset of diffuse peritonitis. As a rule, all wounded people should be operated on immediately if their condition allows, but operations performed after 24 hours or later usually give an unfavorable result.

If it is impossible to perform an immediate operation, prolapsed viscera should not be reset into the abdominal cavity, taking into account the possibility of introducing foreign bodies (pieces of clothing, etc.) and infection. The wounded are injected with antitetanus and antigangrenous serum.

Patients with abdominal wounds are admitted to the surgical department without taking a bath, as they are subject to emergency surgery.

Shaving, if the stomach is not painful, can be done before surgery. If there is inflammation of the peritoneum and the stomach is very sensitive, then shave under anesthesia. After surgery, an intramuscular injection of penicillin and streptomycin is prescribed. Penicillin and streptomycin are also administered into the abdominal cavity (200,000-1,000,000 units). As with closed injuries of the abdominal organs, blood and blood-substituting fluid transfusions by jet and drip methods are widely used. If internal bleeding is suspected, blood transfusions are started only during surgery. Patients with suspected injury to the stomach or intestines are not given anything to drink or eat by mouth. To quench thirst in such cases, it is better to inject saline solution under the skin. In case of internal bleeding before and after surgery, it is better to place the patient on a bed with the leg end raised. For abdominal pain - ice.

In the first days after the operation, they give only liquids, then jelly, porridge, and later they switch to a common table. In the absence of injury to the stomach and intestines - diet in the first days; from the 4-5th day you can give bread, minced meat, and by the 7-8th day they move on to regular food, of course, provided that the stomach has normal function. The rest of the patient care is general.

Description of operation

Laparotomy, suturing of the liver wound. Sanitation, drainage of the abdominal cavity.

After treating the surgical field three times with hibitoma, three times under intubation anesthesia, an upper-midline laparotomy was performed. In the abdominal cavity there is a small amount of fresh blood along the right lateral canal, above the hepatic space on the right it is drained. Upon further inspection, a wound of the parietal peritoneum measuring 0.5x0.5 was discovered - suturing with catgut + hemostasis using a Sergisila plate. The colon, small intestine, liver, spleen, pancreas and stomach were inspected, the omental bursa was examined, and no damage was found. The abdominal cavity is drained. The abdominal cavity was drained with a silicone tube into the subhepatic space through a separate incision in the right hypochondrium. Homeostasis – dry. The postoperative wound is completely sutured. Stitches on the skin. The wound on the anterior abdominal wall is sutured in layers with interrupted lavsan sutures. Alcohol. Ac. Bandage.

Rationale for clinical diagnosis.

Complaints upon admission: pain and the presence of a wound in the abdominal area.

Patient's history: According to the patient, 1 hour before admission, he was stabbed in the abdomen, after which he was taken by ambulance to an urgent clinic at the Federal Joint-Stock Company "ZhGMC" "Central Road Hospital" with a blood pressure of 140/90 mmHg, examined surgeon - during inspection of the wound, the penetrating nature of the wound was revealed. Considering the penetrating nature of the wound, the patient was taken from the emergency room to the operating room.

Heart sounds are muffled, rhythmic, body temperature is 36.7 degrees, blood pressure is 140/90 mm Hg, pulse is 90 per minute.

Locally: The tongue is dry, covered with a white coating. The abdomen is of regular shape, participates in the act of breathing, is symmetrical, and is painful on palpation in all parts. Symptoms of peritoneal irritation are positive. Percussion reveals dullness in sloping areas. Peristalsis is heard. The effleurage syndrome is negative on both sides. Urination is free and painless. Gases go away. The chair is without any features.

Status Localis: When examined to the right of the midline along the edge of the costal arch in the epigastric region, there is a wound with smooth edges and sharp corners measuring 2.0 x 1.5 cm. It is bleeding profusely; upon inspection of the wound at the trauma center, the bleeding nature of the wound into the abdominal cavity was revealed.

Diagnosis on admission: penetrating injury to the abdominal cavity.
