Background

  • Relatively uncommon, occurs most frequently in children after blunt abdominal trauma[1][2]
    • May also occur as a complication of endoscopy
  • Diagnosis difficult as symptoms often delayed[3][4]
  • Estimated mortality associated with duodenal injury ranges from 5 to 30% [5]

Clinical Features

EGD showing extrinsic compression by a bluish swelling (extra-parietal hematoma) in the first part of the duodenum, blocking passage in the second duodenal portion.

Differential Diagnosis

Abdominal Trauma

Evaluation

CT showing an 11 x 5 cm intramural duodenal hematoma secondary to pancreatitis (not seen).
Abdominal CT showing an 8 cm × 6 cm × 11cm hematoma on the lateral duodenal wall, compressing and displacing the duodenum without signs of active extravasation.

Workup

Labs:

  • Serum lipase/amylase may be associated with duodenal injury, but both are not sensitive/specific.

Diagnosis

  • If hemodynamically stable: CT abdomen with IV contrast
  • If hemodynamically unstable: OR

Management

Hemodynamically stable

  • Conservative management with NG tube placement, enteral rest, IVF, and pain control

Hemodynamically unstable:

  • OR for abdominal exploration

Disposition

  • Admit

Complications

Acute

  • Rarely caused in isolation. Other commonly involved sites include liver, pancreas, stomach/intestinal, and vascular injuries
  • Gastric outlet or intestinal obstruction

Subacute
