Single ilial perforation into mesentric border following blunt abdominal trauma

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 10

Abstract

Isolated ilial perforation(IIP) caused by blunt abdominal trauma is uncommon and most often seen after motor ve-hicle accidents. We present a case of single perforation of the ilium in a young male who was admitted to our hospital with intense abdominal pain following fall by itshelf on stairs. Although the erect chest radiograph was negative for free air, abdominal com-puted tomography scan revealed GI perforation. The exploratory laparotomy that followed revealed only a 1 cm perforation of the ilium at messentric border, 90 cm from the iliocaecal junction. Although our experience as a trauma center is limited, clinical suspicion and timely exploration in this case led to prompt surgical intervention and a successful outcome.
