TRAUMATIC BACKGROUND REMOVAL CONTRIBUTING TO THE LATE DIAGNOSIS OF DUODENAL TRAUMA

Blunt duodenal trauma is an entity of difficult diagnosis and high morbidity and mortality. We report a case of a patient with severe blunt trauma, in which there was a late diagnosis of duodenal injury, due to the presence of a soft tissue injury with back degloving associated with fracture and listhesis of v lumbar vertebrae, which confounded the interpretation of the CT scan. A high index of suspicion is necessary to reduce morbidity and mortality from this lesion.

    Blunt duodenal trauma is an entity of difficult diagnosis and high morbidity and mortality. We report a case of a patient with severe blunt trauma, in which there was a late diagnosis of duodenal injury, due to the presence of a soft tissue injury with back degloving associated with fracture and listhesis of v lumbar vertebrae, which confounded the interpretation of the CT scan. A high index of suspicion is necessary to reduce morbidity and mortality from this lesion.
