The liver is the second most common organ injured in blunt abdominal trauma, and with the use of diagnostic techniques such as hepatic scanning, an increasing number of patients with intrahepatic lesions are being identified. Five patients with this type of lesion are presented. A plan of managament, including observation in an intensive care unit, repeated physical examinations, frequent reevaluation of laboratory values, bed rest, gastrointestinal tract decompression and broad spectrum antibiotics, is suggested as the treatment of choice for this type of injury. All patients in the series have done well with no abscess formation, delayed rupture of hemobilia, and all show resolution of the defect on following-up hepatic scanning.
