AIM: To identify @entity1 with @entity130 , who should benefit from a conservative treatment, and to compare inhospital follow-up and hospital length of stay (LOS), in @entity1 treated by non-operative management (NOM) versus @entity10284 ( @entity10284 ). MATERIAL OF STUDY: A retrospective cohort study on consecutive @entity1 , with all grade of @entity130 , admitted between November 2010 and December 2014 at the Acute Care Surgery Service of the S. Anna University Hospital of Ferrara. @entity1 were offered NOM or @entity10284 . RESULTS: Fifty-four @entity1 were enrolled; 29 (53.7%) underwent @entity10284 and 25 (46.3%) were offered NOM. @entity432 was performed in 9 @entity1 (36%) among this latter group. High-grade @entity130 (IVV) were more represented in @entity10284 group (65.5% vs 8%), while low grade (I-II) were more represented in NOM group (64% vs 10.3%). Failure of NOM occurred in 4 @entity1 (16%). Hospital LOS was longer in @entity10284 group (p=0.044), while in-hospital and 30-day mortality were not statistically significant different between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: Hemodynamically stable @entity1 , with grade I to III of @entity130 , without other severe abdominal organ injuries, could benefit from a NOM; the in-hospital follow-up should be done, after a control CECT scan, with US. Observation and strictly monitoring of @entity130 treated with NOM do not affect @entity1 ' hospital los. KEY WORDS: Non-operative management, @entity9440 , Surgery.
