Abstract

SANTANA-TORREALBA, Aimeé T. Traumatism lumbar for fire weapon of multiple projectiles with multivisceral injury. Cir. gen [online]. 2020, vol.42, n.4, pp.311-315.  Epub Aug 01, 2022. ISSN 1405-0099.  https://doi.org/10.35366/101401.

We present a case of penetrating trauma in the lumbar region due to the multiple projectile firearm that involved damage in multiple organs, considered a surgical emergency, although with a rare presentation. In these cases, the surgeon must make decisions and act immediately to improve the survival of the patient. Clinical, paraclinical data, its management and evolution are exposed, besides comparing it with scrutiny the related medical literature.
