Kharkiv Medical Academy of Post−graduate Education, Kharkiv, Ukraine

Basing on generalization of many−year experience of the author and literature data, the author features some unsolved questions of injury disease, in particular its pathophysiological concept, "computerizing" of the disease, objectivization of severity degree evaluation, shock−producing nature of the injury and the state of the victim, which are important for the choice of methods of clinical pathogenetic treatment. The opinions of the author about the terminology of polyorgan, thoracoabdominal injury as well as classification of mine−explosion injuries are given.
