Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Despite the fact that penetrating abdominal wounds in late pregnancy are becoming increasingly common, there are few such reports in the medical literature. We report the case of a Cambodian woman injured in the border fighting between the Vietnamese and Khmer troops in 1980. Our case is unique in that the fetus survived with a relatively minor fragment wound in the leg. To our knowledge, this is the first report of such a case. |
