2. Ultrasonography.
3. CT scan.
4. ERCP
Management:
1. A partial avulsion of the body and tail or complete transection are
treated by excision, pancreatic duct should be identified and ligated with a non absorbable suture and a drain is led down to the site.
2. If the tear isnt so severely lacerated and distal, it is indicated to
amputate the distal gland even if the duct is intact.
3. If the duct is transected in the base of the laceration, it will leak
whatever sutures are inserted,there are 2 possibilities: a. Drain the site with a soft tube drain stitched to the adjacent
pancreatic capsule.
b. Apply a jejunal loop to the defect in the expectation of a fistula.
4. Pancreatic duodenectomy (whipple procedure) used in massive
injury.
**Post-operative management:
1. Antitrypsin substance eg: Aprotinin for up to 5 days, can inhibit
the development of pancreatitis.
2. Protect the skin around the drain by barrier cream.
**Possible complications after surgery of pancreas:
A. Pancreatic fistula. B. Pancreatitis. C. Pancreatic pseudocyst. This is treated when indicated by cysto-
gastrostomy or into roux loop of jejunum.

Kidney Injury
Kidney injury is common trauma falls and automobile accidents. It is commonly suspected if fractures of the 11th-12th ribs or flank tenderness is found. If hematuria (to any degree) is present, the nature of the injury must be determined. Kidney lacerations can bleed extensively into the retroperitoneal space.
Clinical Findings: The ruptured kidney usually presents with pain on inspiration in the abdomen and flank, and CVA tenderness. Gross hematuria will almost invariably be present, but the injury can still occur with only microscopic hematuria.
Flank discoloration is a late finding that will never be present in the emergency department. The contused kidney can present with identical findings.
Diagnosis:
Differentiating between the lacerated kidney and the contused kidney requires IVP examination or CT scan. If a contrast study such as an aortogram is required for another reason, the kidneys can be assessed during the course of that study.
The lacerated kidney will show leakage of dye, whereas the contused kidney will either be normal or show a blush of dye in the kidney stroma. A non-visualizing kidney implies severe rupture or avulsion of the renal pedicle.
Treatment:
The contused kidney is simply observed. Some kidney lacerations can be managed non-operatively. Surgical management is mandatory for any kidney that shows extravasation of dye.

Bowel Rupture
The most common injuries of intestine that break the wall of the bowel are penetrating injuries. In penetrating trauma, the small bowel is most frequently injured, followed by the stomach and large intestine. Rupture of bowel also can occur when a localized crush happens, such as when the steering wheel pinches the duodenum against the spine. In blunt trauma, most commonly the duodenum is injured, because of its location and its ligamentous attachments.
Clinical Findings: Symptoms are caused by the intestinal contents, rather than blood loss. Stomach rupture causes rapid onset of burning epigastric pain, followed quickly by rigidity and rebound sensitivity. Small bowel and colon injury may present only with vague generalized pain, with peritonitis following after hours. Duodenal injury may cause back pain.
This small, almost invisible colon injury, can cause fatal peritonitis if
not recognized and treated
152
Diagnosis:
The diagnosis of bowel rupture is made by finding free air on abdominal x-ray. Use a decubitus or cross-table view for the patient who cannot stand for an upright view. Duodenal or sigmoid colon injury may result in retroperitoneal air only. Peritoneal lavage will show WBCs and intestinal content, except for retroperitoneal duodenal or sigmoid rupture. Contrast examination may be required in equivocal cases, if surgery is not indicated for another reason.
Treatment:
Surgical repair is required. In cases of small bowel rupture commonly over suture of the small lesion is enough, in extended cases resection is needed. Large bowel rupture is usually treated with suturing and sometimes protective colostomy is indicated.

Trauma In Pregnancy

Trauma in pregnancy is the commonest cause of non-obstetric maternal death. When dealing with pregnant injured patient, it is essential to take in consideration that two lives are at risk.
The pregnant patient who sustains trauma is usually extremely anxious about herself and her baby. The fetus may die unless the mother is adequately resuscitated. Management and treatment priorities are the same as for the non-pregnant patient, but during resuscitation and stabilization one should take account of the anatomical and physiological changes of pregnancy. Early consultation and involvement of an obstetrician is usually needed.
CAUSES OF TRAMA IN PREGNANCY.
Road traffic accidents are the commonest reason for hospital admission following trauma in pregnancy. Other causes include blunt trauma as a result of assault or falls, penetrating trauma due to stabbing or gunshot wound, and burns.
The use of seat belts by pregnant women should reduce both maternal and fetal mortality by preventing ejection from the vehicle.
THE EFFECTS OF ANATOMICAL CHANGES OF PREGNANCY ON THE RESPONSE TO TRAUMA.
The anatomical changes of pregnancy make the uterus and its contents
155
more susceptible to penetration, uterine rupture, placental abruption and rupture of the membranes.
During the first trimester the fetus lies within the thick-walled uterus and is protected against injury by the bony pelvis. After the 12th week of gestation the uterus becomes an intra-abdominal organ and therefore more vulnerable to direct injury. During the second trimester the fetus is cushioned by a large volume of amniotic fluid. But by the end of the third trimester the uterus is thin-walled and offering little protection to the fetus. The continuous enlargement of the uterus during pregnancy displaces the intestines to the upper abdomen. Because of the difference in elasticity between the uterine wall and the placenta, a placental abruption may result after abdominal trauma. Myometrial injury can cause uterine contractions.
THE EFFECTS OF PHYSIOLOGICAL CHANGES OF PREGNANCY ON THE RESPONSE OF TRAUMA.
The respiratory rate in pregnancy is usually unchanged, but tidal volume increases and residual capacity falls. This causes a physiological hyperventilation during pregnancy. A pregnant trauma patient could have both maternal and fetal acidosis. The cardiac output increases during pregnancy. In the supine position the pressure of the uterus on the great vessels may cause aorto-caval compression and leads to a decrease of the cardiac output. The resting pulse rate increases by 15­20 beats \ min. in the third trimester.
The systolic and diastolic blood pressure fall by 15 mmHg in the second trimester, returning to normal by term. Blood volume increases by 50 % at 34 weeks of gestation.
Fractures of the pelvis are often associated with massive haemorrhage
156
from dilated pelvic veins. Any damage to the placental bed may cause severe haemorrhage due to its high vascularity. Because of the increased circulating blood volume the pregnant patient could lose 50% more blood than a non-pregnant patient before signs of hypotension or shock could occur. Vasoconstriction of the placental vessels due to catecholamines could preserve the maternal circulation at the expense of fetal perfusion.
The fetus may therefore be shocked before signs of maternal shock develop. Sometimes supine position of the pregnant patient may cause hypotension or signs of shock that can be corrected by bringing the pregnant patient in normal position.
The enlarged uterus is causing a displacement of the gastro-intestinal tract to the upper abdomen which increases the risk of aspiration of gastric contents into the lungs because of an increase of intragastric pressure.
Stretching of the peritoneum and abdominal musculature by the gravid uterus diminishes rebound tenderness and guarding as signs of abdominal injury.
The renal plasma blood flow and the glomerular filtration rate increase during pregnancy and glucosuria is common in pregnant women.
The bladder is displaced upwards and anteriorly by the enlarging uterus after the 12th week and more susceptible to direct injury. The mass of the pituitary gland increases by up to 50% during pregnancy.
Eclampsia is a complication of pregnancy which could mimic head injury.
If a pregnant patient has convulsions with the presence of oedema and proteinuria, eclampsia must be considered.
157
During pregnancy the white blood cell count is increased and a slight dilutional anemia could occur, because of a smaller increase in red cell mass than circulatory volume.
Fetal Physiology
The effect of trauma on pregnancy depends on the gestational age of the fetus, the type and severity of the trauma, and the extent of disruption of normal uterine and fetal physiology. The survival of the fetus depends on adequate uterine perfusion and delivery of oxygen. The uterine circulation has no autoregulation which implies that uterine blood flow is related directly to maternal systemic blood pressure, at least until the mother approaches hypovolemic shock. At that point, peripheral vasoconstriction will further compromise uterine perfusion. Once obvious shock develops in the mother, the chances of saving the fetus are about 20 %.
If fetal oxygenation or perfusion are compromised by trauma, the response of the fetus may include bradycardia or tachycardia, a decrease in the baseline variability of the heart rate, the absence of normal accelerations in the heart rate, or recurrent decelerations. It should be noted that an abnormal fetal heart rate may be the first indication of an important disruption in fetal homeostasis. During trauma resuscitation, evaluation of the fetus should begin with auscultation of heart tones and continuous recording of the heart rate. Trauma to the uterus (direct or indirect) can also injure the myometrium and destabilize decidual lysosomes, releasing arachidonic acid that can cause uterine contractions, and perhaps inducing premature labor.
Maternal Physiology
Increases in cardiac output and blood volume begin early in the first trimester and are 30-40% above the nonpregnant state by 28 weeks.
158
This relative hypervolemic state and hemodilution is protective for the mother because fewer red blood cells are lost during hemorrhage. The hypervolemia prepares the mother for the blood loss that accompanies vaginal delivery (500 ml) or cesarean section (1000 ml). However, almost 40% of maternal blood volume may be lost prior to the manifestation of signs of maternal shock.
Despite the increase in blood volume and cardiac output, the parturient is susceptible to hypotension from aortocaval compression in the supine position. Only about 10% of pregnant patients at term develop symptoms of shock in the supine position, but fetal compromise can be occurring even in the asymptomatic mother. Left uterine displacement increases cardiac output by 30% and restore circulation. Uterine displacement must be maintained at all times during resuscitation, transport and perioperatively for nonobstetrical surgery. As the uterus enlarges, the diaphragm rises about 4 cm and the diameter of the chest enlarges by 2 cm, increasing the substernal angle by 50%. Care should be taken to consider these anatomic changes when thoracic procedures such as thoracostomies are being performed. The most important respiratory change during pregnancy is the decrease in functional residual capacity (FRC). Beginning in the second trimester, there is a 20% decrease in FRC coupled with a 20% increase in oxygen consumption. In addition, 30% of parturients have airway closure during normal tidal ventilation in the supine position. All these changes predispose to rapid falls in PaO2 during periods of apnea or airway obstruction. Hence, supplemental oxygen is always indicated for these patients in the resuscitation room. Minute ventilation increases at term by 50% due to an increase in tidal volume, so normal PaCO2 falls to 30-32 mmHg with a slight compensatory decrease in plasma bicarbonate levels.
