30 casualties who had sustained a kidney contusion (23 patients) or a kidney rupture (7 patients) were questioned about their posttraumatic possibility of action after their recovery. Essential result: Fundamental differences were detected between the two groups. The high degree of the ability to act for a longer period of time may be explained by the comparatively low acuteness of pain after kidney contusions and the impression of most casualties of not being seriously injured. In contrast to kidney contusions, kidney ruptures are generally accompanied by moderate to severe pain. Accordingly, the possibility of action in cases of kidney ruptures is restricted more frequently and to a greater extent than in cases of kidney contusions. The two groups had one thing in common: the casualties' mostly deliberate posttraumatic reaction; there were only 3 patients in a state of helplessness.

Introduction: Road traffic accidents (RTA) account for a sizable portion of morbidity and mortality globally, with a particularly high incidence among young and active individuals. Patients presenting with polytrauma require a multidisciplinary approach guided by protocols for advanced trauma life support.
Case Report: We report the case of a 31-year-old female, transferred-in to our center following primary care after an RTA on June 17th, 2023.

Traumatic hemothorax is a serious condition requiring immediate intervention. We present a case of a 48-year-old male professional jockey who suffered traumatic hemothorax, bilateral pulmonary contusions, and multiple rib fractures after being stomped by a horse. Management included intercostal drainage placement, costal fixation from the 5th to the 10th rib, and intensive care unit admission.

Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed lower limb and pelvic fractures in hospitalized children across 27 hospitals in China, focusing on factors like causes, locations, and associated injuries from 2015 to 2019.
- Preschool children had the highest incidence of fractures, with a total of 14,398 fractures recorded, primarily affecting the femur, tibia, fibula, and pelvis.
- The leading causes of fractures were falls, traffic accidents, and falls from height, with respiratory traumas being the most common concurrent injuries observed.

In the presented clinical observation of complex therapy of severe combined trauma: severe brain contusion, subarachnoid hemorrhage, closed fracture of the occipital bone, closed compression fracture of Th-Th vertebral bodies, contusion of the lungs and kidneys, blunt abdominal trauma and closed fracture of both bones of the right leg in lower third with displacement) in a teenager after an accident, the need for dynamic introscopic examination of the patient is shown for timely detection of abnormalities in the state of brain structures and correction of treatment up to surgical intervention. The effectiveness of the inclusion of Cytoflavin in complex treatment regimens was noted in the form of positive dynamics of the clinical and introscopic picture. The results obtained may serve as a basis for further research.

Background: Streak artifacts induced by irregular arm positioning have been an issue in diagnosing the abdomen.
Purpose: To illustrate the risk of misdiagnosis in abdominal computed tomography (CT) of patients with irregular arm positioning through a case-by-case evaluation and to test if it can be solved by the artificial intelligence iterative reconstruction (AIIR) algorithm.
Material And Methods: By reviewing 5220 cases of chest and thoracoabdominal CT, 64 patients with irregular arm positioning were enrolled, whose image data were reconstructed using AIIR in addition to routine hybrid iterative reconstruction (HIR).
