From 1979 to 1987 1428 patients with blunt abdominal trauma were treated in the Department of Surgery of the University of Freiburg; 119 patients had intestinal injuries. They were mainly young adults who had sustained a car accident. 71.3% of the small bowel injuries were overseen, 14.2% needed resection, and in 14.5% an operative procedure was not necessary. The surgical procedure for colonic injuries has to be chosen with regard to the age and general condition of the patient, to the severity of the trauma, to associated injuries and to the stage of peritonitis. Accordingly, 18% of the patients were treated with and 58% without a protective colostomy, 24% could be treated conservatively. Mortality and morbidity correlated with the severity of associated injuries. Morbidity was also dependent on the time interval between accident and operative therapy.
