    AbstractNonobstetric surgical emergencies may be difficult to recognize in pregnant patients whose normal physiologic state is altered by pregnancy.

Treatment in pregnant patients who experience trauma must be systematic so that situations at risk for maternal and fetal loss can be recognized.
