Interpersonal conflicts often result into physical assaults of different magnitudes, usually resulting into interpersonal violence injuries. Every year, a significant portion of patients admitted at the Accident and Emergency units of the hospitals in Rwanda, like in other African countries, are victims of intentional interpersonal violence-related injuries. Globally, studies indicate that the problem of interpersonal violence related-injuries is recognized, and is a significant contributor to surgical morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to analyze and document the patterns and risk factors associated with interpersonal violence injuries in two referral hospitals in Rwanda (University Teaching Hospitals ¿ CHUB and CHUK).
