S30-S39: Injuries to the abdomen, lower back, lumbar spine and pelvis
S36: Injury of intra-abdominal organs
Injuries to the intra-abdominal organs represent a range of conditions where there's harm to the organs located within the abdomen. These injuries may result from blunt force trauma, such as a car crash or fall, as well as sharp injuries, like stabbings or surgeries. The liver, spleen, stomach, intestines, kidneys, and various other organs can all be impacted. Common symptoms can include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, external bruises, or internal bleeding. Progression of these injuries can vary widely, based on factors like severity of damage, the specific organ affected, and the individual's general health. In some instances, complications may arise, including infection, organ dysfunction, or life-threatening bleeding. Timely medical intervention is often crucial to manage these injuries and reduce potential complications.
