  • Title: [Retroperitoneal ruptures of the duodenum. Our experience].
    Author: Tedoli M, Veraldi D, Interlandi G, Sforza F, Barbagiovanni R, Veraldi GF.
    Journal: Minerva Chir; 1990 Nov; 45(21-22):1393-7. PubMed ID: 2097566.
    Abstract:
    The authors describe a case of retroperitoneal rupture of the duodenum following blunt abdominal trauma. The aetiology, symptomatology of these lesions are discussed and treatment is stressed. Duodenal fistula continues to be a serious postoperative complication. Primary repair with drainage is the preferred treatment. Gastrostomy, internal decompression and feeding jejunostomy are usefully added in the most severe duodenal injuries.
