    AbstractTwo hundred twenty-five cases of acute hepatic trauma were reviewed. Thirty-four patients died, 28 (82 per cent) as a direct result of exsanguination. The successful management of hemorrhage associated with severe liver injuries requires early diagnosis, prompt hemostasis and restoration of blood volume, close attention to coagulation factors, and the precise application of surgical techniques.
