Intraabdominal injuries
Clinical signs

Intraabdominal injury is relatively uncommon. Subcapsular hematoma of the liver  —  rupture and intra-abdominal hemorrhage is the most serious complication, the symptoms of shock may be delayed. Predisposing factors inculde hepatomegaly, prematurity and asphyxia.
