ABSTRACT
High incidence of polytraumas of different etiology determines special problems of treatment, the emergency surgeon frequently facing serious and complex injuries the most frequently in unstable patients and therefore difficult to be treated. This paper presents the case of a 19 years old patient, victim of a heteroaggression; clinical examination reveals an unique abdominal wound, surgical procedure showed a liver lesion with massive hemoperitoneum. Authors expose a series of emergency procedures principles for unstable patients and also an unusual method in the treatment of a liver wound. Actually, this method means catheterization of the liver wound with a Blakemore catheter. The esophageal balloon is full fill to make a positive pressure on this wound. Good evolution of the case justifies this method to be used as an alternative procedure to other haemostatic methods (liver resections, hepatic artery ligature etc.).
