Abstract This is a report of a study of 63 cases of penetrating liver injuries. Forty-two patients (67 per cent) who presented with signs of an acute abdomen were operated on. The liver was routinely sutured and drained. There was no incidence of postoperative intra-abdominal sepsis or haematobilia.
