Journal Title: Journal of Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Trauma is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the paediatric age group.Complications associated with an intramural hematoma of the bowel, is a relatively rare condition as most of the intramural hematomas resolve spontaneously with conservative treatment and thus the patient’s prognosis is good. However, if the symptoms do not resolve or worsen , surgical intervention might become necessary. We present a case of an eleven years old girl with blunt trauma to the abdomen with symptoms of bowel obstruction not improving on conservative measures. CT scan revealed a duodenal and jejuna hematoma. She was operated due to worsening of symptoms and resection of 3rd and 4th part of duodenum and proximal part of jejunum was done. End to side hand sewn single layered interrupted duodenojejunostomy was done. Reverse duodenostomy and feeding jejunostomy was done . The patient has recovered and is healthy.
