Resumen |
Duodenal injuries are uncommon and are found in only 3.7% of all laparotomies for trauma. Primary repair or duodenorrhaphy is successful in the majority of duodenal wounds. However, duodenal trauma can be complex and the management difficult, especially when the diagnosis is delayed, as in blunt trauma or when massive injury to the pancreatic-duodenal-biliary complex occurs from penetrating trauma. This article focuses on the definition, recognition, and management of complex duodenal injuries.
