Journal Title: National Journal of Integrated Research in Medicine - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Context : Pancreaticoduodenal complex injuries are uncommon after blunt abdominal trauma and are difficult to diagnose. Case Report : We report a case of 25 years old male who suffered massive Pancreaticoduodenal complex with liver injuries due to blunt abdominal trauma. At exploration we found that 2nd part of duodenum and head of pancreas were completely shattered and segment II & III of liver were lacerated. We performed Pylorus preserving Pancreaticoduodenectomy with segment II and III resection. Conclusion : Pancreaticoduodenal injuries should be suspected in every patient with trauma to upper abdomen. Exploration should be done at the earliest.
