OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to describe the presence
and CT distribution of nontraumatic fluid collections and edema in the abdomen
and pelvis after initial fluid resuscitation of patients with major (
25%
total body surface area) thermal burns.
CONCLUSION. Awareness of the presence and expected CT distribution of nontraumatic fluid after initial fluid resuscitation in patients with major burns can assist the radiologist in differentiating such collections from those caused by mechanical trauma.
