OBJECTIVE: Non-operative management of @entity3511 has recently become more common. Especially non-operative treatment of blunt @entity1661 is gaining wide acceptance. In this study, the efficacy of non-operative treatment in @entity1661 (blunt penetrating) is discussed. MATERIAL AND METHODS: All @entity1 who received treatment due to @entity1661 from November 2008 to January 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. The demographic characteristics, @entity130 , injured organ, type of treatment (operative vs. nonoperative) and mortality data were evaluated. RESULTS: The study includes 115 @entity1 treated for @entity1661 in our department. The mechanism of @entity130 was stab wounds in 60%, blunt @entity1661 in 23.5% and gunshot wounds in 16.5%. Forty-two @entity1 (36.5%) were operated for hemodynamic instability and/or @entity298 on admission. The remaining 63.5% of @entity1 (n=73) were treated nonoperatively, 10 of whom required laparotomy during follow-up. The remaining 63 @entity1 were treated with non-operative management. The success rate for non-operative treatment was 86.3% and there was no difference in terms of the types of @entity130 . The mortality rate was 4.3% (n= 5) in the whole series, but there were no deaths among the @entity1 who had received non-operative treatment. In the whole @entity1 group 54.2% (n=63) were treated nonoperatively. CONCLUSION: Nonoperative treatment in @entity1661 is safe and effective. @entity1 with clinical stability and normal physical examination findings can be treated nonoperatively with close monitoring.
