[Thoracic injuries in children].

During the period between 1967 and 1987 at the Paediatric Surgical Clinic in Brno 87 multiple injuries with a dominant affection of the chest were treated. Two patients from the group died. The mortality increases considerably in groups with combined injuries of the chest and other parts of the body. The authors give indications for surgical treatment of chest injuries and their own experience with the treatment of associated injuries of the chest in children.

[Treatment of post-traumatic reaction of multiple injuries in children].

Polytraumatism in childhood is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality. Therefore we emphasize the demand of high-standard intensive or resuscitation care. In a severely injured child the first duty is to initiate urgent treatment as prevention focused on the minimalization of negative changes leading to mortality or prolonged morbidity. One of the basic tasks of treatment is to ensure haemodynamic stabilization. In this connection it is important to take into account that in young children hypovolaemia develops before hypotension. Within the framework of treatment of severe injuries the authors discuss the problem of non-oliguric and oliguric renal failure. Part of the lecture is devoted to the metabolic response of the child organism to injury. In the conclusion the authors mention the principles of postoperative hydration of the child.

[Incidence of multiple injuries in children 1977-1986].

The authors give an account of multiple injuries in children during a ten-year period. Injuries are divided into different groups according to the dominating injury--head, chest, abdomen, pelvis, urogenital system, extremities and injuries without a dominant. From the total number of 277 casualties there were 101 with a predominating injury of the head, 35 of the chest, 41 of the abdomen, 24 of the pelvis and urogenital system, 71 of the extremities and 4 without a dominant. Deaths were recorded after dominating head injuries in 11.8%, after dominating abdominal injuries in 7.3% and in the group without a dominant in 75%. In the remaining group no deaths were recorded. Attention is paid also to the diagnosis and therapeutic tactics of these serious conditions and the necessity to establish the order in which to implement therapeutic procedures in multiple injuries.
