Abstract

Thoracoabdominal traumatism is one of the topical problem of modern medicine due to its wide prevalence, the most severe course and unfavorable outcome. This article presents an overview of the epidemiology, diagnosis, and surgical treatment of patients with thoracoabdominal injuries. It shown that, current incidence of thoracoabdominal injuries is reached to 13.7-16.4% of all chest and abdominal injuries. Lethality inthoracoabdominal injuries range from 3.13% to 20%. In most cases these are patients of working age, with an average age of 27.5-34.8 years, men to comprise (71.2%). Nowadays, the amount of patients with thoracoabdominal injuries tends to increase in the Uzbekistan and other economically developing countries of the world because of raising of transportation, construction and crime. Video-thoracoscopy and video-laparoscopy are one of the widespread methods of diagnosing and treatment of thoracoabdominal traumas. According to many authors, specificity of video-laparoscopy and video-thoracoscopy is 100%, the sensitivity is 87.5–99.3%, and the predictive efficiency is 96.8 percent and the need for widespread use for performing minimally invasive medical manipulations as a reasonable alternative to open operations, indications for emergency and urgent thoracotomy and laparotomy, some new methods of operative surgical technique are proposed. However, in case of profuse bleeding into the pleural or abdominal cavity is indication to thoracotomy and laparotomy. Therefore researchers continue to search for promising ways to improve outcomes for patients with thoracoabdominal injuries. Researchers define rapid and accurate diagnostics aimed primarily at determining the volume of injuries of the chest, abdomen and diaphragm with subsequent selection of the best sequence of therapeutic measures.
