The original content contains an invalid date format: "20/16". This cannot be translated into a standard D/M or D/M/YYYY format as per the instructions, as "16" is not a valid month. Interpreting or guessing the correct month (e.g., 20/6 for June 20th) would go against the instruction "Do not interpret or expand them" for numbers/symbols related to time. Therefore, the specific date has been omitted from the English translation, and this issue is noted.
Doctor Ha Thi Bich Van, Head of the Intensive Care and Anti-Poisoning Department at Phu Tho Provincial General Hospital, stated that the patient suffered a severe liver injury, right chest trauma, and right pleural effusion.
Doctors performed a non-surgical intervention to stop the bleeding, reducing the risk of blood loss and limiting complications.

After 10 days of hospitalization, the patient's condition stabilized, and he was transferred to a local hospital for continued treatment.
According to Doctor Van, liver trauma is a dangerous injury, carrying a high risk of massive blood loss and rapid death if not treated promptly.
