Abdomen is one of the common and important regions in respect to trauma. Liver, spleen and kidneys are most vulnerable organs to be affected. Early diagnosis and treatment is of utmost importance as the delay results in increase rate of mortality and morbidity. If not diagnosed and treated early results in 25-35% deaths. Blunt abdominal trauma usually occurs from motor vehicle accidents, automobile-pedestrian accidents. Other etiologies include fall, industrial or recreational etiologies. Prevalence of intrabdominal injury varies widely ranging from 7.7-65%. Most studies indicate that peak incidence occurs in persons aged 14-30 years. Ultrasonography is the primary modality of choice for diagnosis of intrabdominal injuries.Ultrasonography is a noninvasive, rapid, accurate, portable, relatively inexpensive examination, serial examinations can be performed and it can be done in unstable patients during resuscitation. Other diagnostic modalities include Computed Tomography and Diagnostic Peritoneal Lavage.
