Abstract

A 10 years old child was brought to the Emergency Department of Combined Military Hospital (CMH), Lahore with a history of trivial injury due to fall from a bicycle. He was found to be having severe intraperitoneal hemorrhage. Immediate resuscitation in the emergency department could not revive his vital parameters. He was operated upon in emergency and found to be having grade V hepatic injury extending into retrohepatic inferior vena cava. Child was operated under general anesthesia and recovered well postoperatively without any residual complication.
