The management of blunt abdominal trauma has changed dramatically over the past 3 decades. The introduction and promulgation of computed tomography (CT) provided a diagnostic test providing both sensitive and specific information. CT documented the presence and quantity of hemoperitoneum as well as the specific organ injured (which we graded). This advance allowed the safe practice of nonoperative management of blunt solid abdominal organ injury. The progress made in interventional radiology with both diagnosis and embolization techniques provided another tool to facilitate safe nonoperative management of abdominal organ injury. These modalities have also facilitated the nonoperative management of the complications of observation of blunt injuries; such as percutaneous drainage of an abscess or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for diagnosis and treatment of injury to the biliary or pancreatic ducts. We have provided four review articles addressing “What’s new?” in the management of blunt injury to the spleen [1], liver [2], pancreas [3] and kidney [4]. These articles have centered on references from the past 10–15 years, as well as seminal articles. We hope that you find them to be useful.
