This document summarizes information on torso trauma, including thoracic and abdominal trauma. It discusses the types of blunt and penetrating torso injuries and emphasizes the importance of early resuscitation and examination in guiding appropriate investigations. Key investigations covered are chest X-ray, CT scan, ultrasound, and laparoscopy. Management depends on whether injuries are thoracic or abdominal, with most chest injuries managed conservatively and unstable abdominal trauma requiring damage control surgery to address bleeding and contamination.
