Journal Title: Journal of Advances in Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
Blunt trauma abdomen leads to varieties of injury to the intraperitoneal organ. Isolated small bowel injury is rare entity in blunt trauma abdomen. Complete transection of jejunum at two places is also a rare presentation in blunt trauma abdomen. Most of the reported cases of small bowel injury were due to road traffic accident. We report a case of complete transection of jejunum at two places in blunt trauma abdomen without any injury to other organ due to fall off rock slab over abdomen. As per our knowledge, there was no reported case of isolated complete transection of jejunum at two places in blunt trauma abdomen previously.
