Operative Versus Selective Non‐operative Management in Adult Penetrating Abdominal Trauma With Bowel or Omental Evisceration: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Penetrating abdominal trauma with bowel or omental evisceration has traditionally mandated exploratory laparotomy due to perceived high risk of intra‐abdominal injury. Selective nonoperative management (SNOM) has gained acceptance in stable patients, but evidence specific to evisceration remains limited and controversial.
