AB This  Ninth  Edition  of  Trauma  is  another  milestone  in  the  now  35-year  journey  of  the  textbook.  Originally  conceived  at  a  time  (1984)  when  prospective  randomized  and  multicenter  studies  were  rare  in  the  field,  the  management  of  injured  patients  was  based  on  the  following:  history/physical  examination/routine  laboratory  tests/routine  x-rays;  decreasing  role  for  diagnostic  peritoneal  lavage;  increasing  usage  of  computed  tomography  (CT);  and  clinical  guidelines  passed  on  from  teachers  and  mentors.
