The conservative group was formed of 21 patients, while the operative group was formed of 9 patients. Results: a higher rate of morbidity and mortality during the course of management was found among the patients of the operative group, while 4 patients (19%) in conservative group suffered from complications 6 patients (66.7%) in operative group suffered after the operative management. The only mortality case was found in operative group. Conclusion: the operative management of liver trauma is associated with higher grade of injury, higher needs for blood transfusion, ICU admission and a higher rate of further management, morbidity, mortality and the presence of co-injuries
