Description
Abdallah Alem and colleagues review non operative care for traumatic liver injury in Palestine, in work from 2026. Avoiding surgery is the preferred path for well chosen patients, yet data from Palestine and similar settings stay scarce. The cohort comes from one trauma centre in Jenin over five years.
Fifty-eight patients with proven liver injury were split by first care choice. Most began with non operative care, while a small group went straight to open surgery. Every non operative patient survived with no later switch to surgery at all. Higher injury grades brought more complications, drains, and longer stays in that group. Gunshot wounds caused all penetrating cases in the cohort.
