Abstract
The blunt abdominal trauma have become increasingly common in this era of speed and hurry. The machines now occupied position of master of man rather than man who was the master of machine. The speed , unwanted hurry, shortage of time leads to error of judgement while driving, hence all types of high momentum deceleratio injuries occurs to human body including abdomen .The blunt trauma abdomen poses a formidable challenge to the modern science and particularly surgeon for managing multitude of solid organ ,hollow visceral and other internal injuries . The complete transection of gut is rare and extreme form of gut injury in blunt trauma of abdomen following usually high momentum deceleratio injuries in vehicular traffic accidents .Blunt trauma abdomen may cause solid organ or hollow visceral injuries. The complete jejunum transection is very rare in blunt trauma abdomen. We report a case of double jejunal transection that occurred when speeding motor bike struck the road divider in a town lane.
