Abstract
Although abdominal trauma has been described since antiquity, formal laparotomies for trauma were not performed until the 1800s. Even with the introduction of general anesthesia in the United States during the years 1842 to 1846, laparotomies for abdominal trauma were not performed during the Civil War. The first laparotomy for an abdominal gunshot wound in the United States was finally performed in New York City in 1884. An aggressive operative approach to all forms of abdominal trauma till the establishment of formal trauma centers (where data were analyzed) resulted in extraordinarily high rates of nontherapeutic laparotomies from the 1880s to the 1960s. More selective operative approaches to patients with abdominal stab wounds (1960s), blunt trauma (1970s), and gunshot wounds (1990s) were then developed. Current adjuncts to the diagnosis of abdominal trauma when serial physical examinations are unreliable include the following: 1) diagnostic peritoneal tap/lavage, 2) surgeon-performed ultrasound examination; 3) contrast-enhanced CT of the abdomen and pelvis; and 4) diagnostic laparoscopy. Operative techniques for injuries to the liver, spleen, duodenum, and pancreas have been refined considerably since World War II. These need to be emphasized repeatedly in an era when fewer patients undergo laparotomy for abdominal trauma. Finally, abdominal trauma damage control is a valuable operative approach in patients with physiologic exhaustion and multiple injuries.

Abstract
A 28-year-old male patient came to Surgical Department 15.07.2003 after a gunshot wound. An emergency operation was performed. Among the other damages of different part of intestinum damage of the anterior wall of the second anatomical part of the duodenum was diagnosed intraoperatively. The size of the damaged area was 3×1 sm. The doudenal wound was sutured with two layers after updating the edges. On the fifth postoperative day the wound leakage was detected. Later the giant sizes of duodenal fistula was formed. It opened on the anterior wall of the abdomen. After patients proper preparation there was performed the operation after 6 months of initial operation. Operative access was laparotomy from right pararectal incision. The mobilization of the edges of this fistula was performed without entering the abdominal cavity. The first loop of the jejunum was constructed in Roux-an-Y form. There was formed subcutaneous canal and distal part of Roux-an-Y type constructed jejunum was passed through it. There was performed mobilization of the edges of anterior part of aponeurosis of the rectus muscle sheath nearby of the fistula. End-to-End anastomosis was performed between fistula and Roux-an-Y type constructed jejunum. Postoperative period passed without complications. A 45-year-old male patient came to Surgical Department 26.11.1992 after a car accident. After different types of investigations was diagnosed damage of the retroperitoneal wall of the third part of the duodenum. The size of the wound was 2×1 sm. An urgent operation was performed. After Cocher's maneuver a wound was found and sutured. On the postoperative day 4 passage of the duodenal content through the drainage was detected. Retroperitoneal phlegmon with severe intoxication was diagnosed. In reoperation duodenotomy was performed proximally to the damaged area. Duodenum was ligated distally from papilla Vateri. There was performed anastomosis proximally from the ligature between already formed duodenotomy area and distal part of jejunum constructed in Roux-an-Y form. The patient's condition improved the second day after surgery. Thus, according to our experience, there are no standard solutions of treatment of duodenal injuries and postoperative complications. In both cases we adopted non-standard decisions. In accordance with the received good results, we may recommend described operations as the acceptable treatment methods in specific cases.

Abstract
Endoscopic hemostatic procedures such as local injection of epinephrine are commonly used for the treatment of bleeding ulcers. Although the risks are usually considered to be minimal, there are reports describing that duodenal intramural hematomas may develop as a complication after endoscopy especially in patients susceptible to hemorrhage such as those with anticoagulants therapy or blood dyscrasia.

Abstract
The development of pyogenic hepatic abscess resulting from perforation of the gastrointestinal tract is a rare pathologic finding. It is a condition that can be fatal making early detection and subsequent removal of the inciting foreign body critical to avoid more deleterious sequela. Yet, its initial presentation tends to be nonspecific and typically is only discovered once surgical investigation into the cause of persisting abscess formation is performed. In this study, laparoscopic treatment of a 52-year-old male with a non-resolving hepatic abscess due to transmural gastrointestinal perforation of a toothpick is presented. Although a rare finding, reports of foreign body induced hepatic abscess have recently increased in the world literature, allowing some preliminary efforts in proposing diagnostic characterization. Yet, more case studies will be required to permit validation of these findings making continued reporting of this pathologic process critical.

Abstract
Duodenal injury is a serious abdominal organ injury. Duodenal fistula is one of the most serious complications in gastrointestinal surgery, which is concerned for its critical status, difficulty in treatment and high mortality. Thoracic and abdominal compound closed injury and a small part of open injury are common causes of duodenal injury. Iatrogenic or traumatic injury, malnutrition, cancer, tuberculosis, Crohn's disease etc. are common causes of duodenal fistula, however, there has been still lacking of ideal diagnosis and treatment by now. The primary treatment strategy of duodenal fistula is to determine the cause of disease and its key point is prevention, including perioperative parenteral and enteral nutrition support, improvement of hypoproteinemia actively, avoidance of stump ischemia by excessive separate duodenum intraoperatively, performance of appropriate duodenum stump suture to ensure the stump blood supply, and avoidance of postoperative input loop obstruction, postoperative stump bleeding or hematoma etc. Once duodenal fistula occurs, a simple and reasonable operation can be selected and performed after fluid prohibition, parenteral and enteral nutrition, acid suppression, enzyme inhibition, anti-infective treatment and maintaining water salt electrolyte and acid-base balance. Double tube method, duodenal decompression and peritoneal drainage can reduce duodenal fistula-related complications, and then reduce the mortality, which can save the lives of patients.

Abstract
We present a case in which the accidental ingestion of a toothpick caused duodenal perforation and small intestinal obstruction. A 58-year-old man visited our emergency room with acute abdominal pain. Computed tomography (CT) showed obstructive ileus as well as a foreign body penetrating the duodenum, which was identified as a toothpick and removed endoscopically. Unenhanced CT was superior in detecting the object. The patient has been doing well since the operation.

Abstract
A perforated viscus in the postpancreaticoduodenectomy setting is a rare phenomenon and a devastating complication. In this situation, adherence to damage-control principles demands minimizing the operative intervention while addressing the intestinal perforation as a way to mitigate the injurious effects on a complex gastrointestinal reconstruction. Herein, we describe our intraoperative decision-making with an unconventional approach in the management of a perforated viscus in the postpancreaticoduodenectomy setting using a draining T-tube jejunostomy. Our patient recovered remarkably well from this and was discharged from the hospital in six days with a controlled draining T-tube jejunostomy, which was subsequently removed on postoperative day 35. Our case illustrates an important option when dealing with a perforated viscus in the complex gastrointestinal surgery patient that has minimal morbidity, adequate source control, and the potential for an excellent clinical outcome. As surgical care continues to be delivered in a specialty-driven manner, a draining T-tube jejunostomy presents the ideal technique to get out of trouble for the general surgeon practicing in the community who may not be as experienced with complex gastrointestinal surgery.

Abstract
Isolated duodenal injury after blunt abdominal trauma is a very rare entity. In contrast to penetrating injuries, duodenal injuries after blunt trauma are difficult to diagnose. Early diagnosis and management is required to prevent high morbidity and mortality associated with these injuries. We present three young patients of blunt abdominal trauma with an isolated injury to duodenum in which primary repair of perforations were done with good outcomes.

Abstract
Hematoma duodenum is a very rare complication of diagnostic endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract when biopsy of the duodenum is performed (average frequency is estimated as 1:1,250 biopsies). Most often, it affects children and young adults without any risk factors. Symptoms result from obstruction of the duodenum and compression of the adjacent structures. Conservative treatment, which consists of parenteral nutrition and aspiration of gastric contents until the absorption of hematoma and patency of the gastrointestinal tract returns, is preferred. This paper describes a 6-year-old boy diagnosed due to short stature and low weight in whom the diagnostic biopsy of the duodenum caused formation of a hematoma in the descending duodenum and led to total ileus and acute pancreatitis. The boy was treated conservatively with good result and complete resolution of symptoms was achived.

Abstract
Liver abscesses usually arise from amoebian or bacterial origin, being rarely secondary to foreign bodies (1-3). We report the case of a 72-years-old female complaining from abdominal pain located in epoigastrium and right hypochondrium during the last 48 hours. Laboratory data revealed leukocytosis with neutrophilia and pain located in the mentioned locations at physical examination. Ultrasonography showed a liver abscess involving segments 2 and 3. CT scan revealed that the abscess was secondary to a fishbone perforating the duodenum and inlaid in the liver (Figure 1). The fishbone was surgically extracted from the hepatic lobe with hemostasia and a duodenal suture with epiploplastia was performed. Antibiotic was added to the treatment. The patient presented an uneventful postoperative course. The intake of foreign bodies is a frequent event, representing bones and fishbones the most frequent foreing bodies in the adults. Sometimes, the diagnosis may be difficult because the symptoms are not specific. Imaging test are very usefol for the diagnosis, as in the case we present.

Abstract
Traditionally, perivaterian duodenal perforation can be managed conservatively or surgically. If a large volume of leakage results in fluid collection in the retroperitoneum, surgery may be necessary. Our case met the surgical indication for perivaterian duodenal perforation after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with sphincterotomy and endoscopic papillary balloon dilatation. The patient developed a retroperitoneal abscess after the procedures, and a perivaterian perforation was suggested on computed tomography (CT). CT-guided abscess drainage was performed immediately. We unsuccessfully attempted to close the perforation with hemoclips initially. Subsequently, we used fibrin sealant (Tisseel) injection to occlude the perforation. Fibrin sealant injections have been previously used during endoscopy for wound closure and fistula repair. Based on our report, fibrin sealant injection can be considered as an alternative method for the treatment of ERCP-related type II perforations.

Abstract
Optimal surgical management of traumatic duodenal injury (DI) remains controversial. The National Trauma Data Bank was queried for all blunt trauma patients with DI. Patients with isolated injury were identified by excluding chest and head Abbreviated Injury Score > 3 and nonduodenal intra-abdominal Organ Injury Scale ≥ 3. Demographics, OIS, and operative intervention were collected. Outcomes included mortality and hospital length of stay (HLOS). During the study period, 3,456,098 blunt trauma patients were entered into the National Trauma Data Bank, 388,137 of which had abdominal trauma. Overall, 1.0 per cent patients with abdominal trauma had DI with isolated DI in only 0.6 per cent (n = 2220). The majority of isolated DI was low grade with only 158 patients sustaining severe injury and overall mortality was 5.2 per cent. Overall 743 patients were operated, of which 353 (47.5%) patients underwent duodenal operation, 280 (37.7%) had primary repair (PR), and 68 (9.2%) had gastroenterostomy (GE). Patients with PR had similar mortality to those with GE (6.6% vs 4.5%, P = 0.777); however, HLOS was shorter (median 11 days, vs 18 days, P < 0.001). In only OIS 4 and 5 injuries, PR was also associated with shorter HLOS (P = 0.004) and similar mortality (P = 1.000) when compared with GE. Isolated DI after blunt abdominal trauma is rare. In severe injuries, PR is associated with a shorter HLOS without effecting mortality when compared with GE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accidental ingestion of foreign bodies is common in clinical practice. While perforation of the ileum and jejunum due to the ingested foreign body is common, duodenal perforation is rare. In this report, our experience with this rare entity is shared. CASE REPORT Here we present a 31-year-old patient with gastrointestinal tract perforation at the second part of the duodenum due to an ingested fishbone. The patient was admitted to the emergency room with abdominal pain. Right upper quadrant tenderness was detected at physical examination, and leukocytosis on the laboratory test results. Ultra-sonography was not diagnostic, however, computerized tomo-graphy showed an ingested foreign body in the second part of the duodenum. A fishbone perforating the duodenum was retrieved by endoscopy. The patient was managed non-operatively, and discharged without any problems on the third day after endoscopy. CONCLUSION Endoscopic removal and non-operative management may be feasible in carefully selected patients with duodenal perforated fishbone ingestion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Duodenal injuries do not often occur and are usually difficult to be diagnosed or treated. METHODOLOGY To summarize the experience in managing duodenal injuries and determine some prognostic factors, we conducted a retrospective review on 42 cases of duodenal injuries including 17 traumatic (blunt 31.0%, penetrating 9.5%) and 25 iatrogenic (59.5%) ones, which were admitted to our hospital from 1993 to 2013. RESULTS The mortality rate was 23.8% (n = 10). Main cause of late death was multiple system organ failure and infection. Senility and high APACHE II score were both correlated with mortality rate (P < 0.01 and P < 0.05 respectively). High morbidity and mortality rate were more likely to be associated with those had long delays in treatment or injury in the second part of the duodenum (P < 0.05). The number of associated injuries affected mortality rate (P < 0.05). For traumatic injuries, the mechanism of injury, method of initial surgical management, Organ Injury Scale and Abbreviated Injury Scale were not related to patients' outcome (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS These findings indicated that early diagnosis and timely treatment were of great clinical value. Primary repair with an effective diversion was practicable. Age and APACHE II Score were the independent prognostic factors.

Abstract
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a state of the art diagnostic and therapeutic procedure for various pancreatic and biliary problems. In spite of the well-established safety of the procedure, there is still a risk of complications such as pancreatitis, cholangitis, bleeding and perforation. Air leak syndrome has rarely been reported in association with ERCP and the optimal management of this serious condition can be difficult to establish. Our group successfully managed a case of air leak syndrome following ERCP which was caused by a 3cm Stapfer type I perforation in the posterolateral aspect of the second part of the duodenum and was repaired surgically. Hereby, we describe the presentation and subsequent therapeutic approach.

Abstract
Retroperitoneal perforation of the duodenum, caused by abdominal trauma, endoscopic examination or diverticulitis, is a serious clinical problem, because of it's lack of specific symptoms. Surgical treatment is often performed in sepsis. That is why the knowledge of adequate techniques is crucial for surgeons. We would like to present our model of surgical approach, based on several trauma center's cases. Among the methods and techniques presented we emphasize the duodenal by-pass with bile duct drainage. Post-op cases of gastrojejunal anastomosis' bleeding prompt to implement a selective vagotomy, which however requires further studies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pancreatoduodenal (PD) injury is an uncommon but serious complication of blunt and penetrating trauma, associated with high mortality. The aim of this study was to assess the incidence, mechanisms of injury, initial operation rates and outcome of patients who sustained PD trauma in the UK from a large trauma registry, over the period 1989-2013. METHODS The Trauma Audit and Research Network database was searched for details of any patient with blunt or penetrating trauma to the pancreas, duodenum or both. RESULTS Of 356,534 trauma cases, 1,155 (0.32%) sustained PD trauma. The median patient age was 27 years for blunt trauma and 27.5 years for penetrating trauma. The male-to-female ratio was 2.5:1. Blunt trauma was the most common type of injury seen, with a ratio of blunt-to-penetrating PD injury ratio of 3.6:1. Road traffic collision was the most common mechanism of injury, accounting for 673 cases (58.3%). The median injury severity score (ISS) was 25 (IQR: 14-35) for blunt trauma and 14 (IQR: 9-18) for penetrating trauma. The mortality rate for blunt PD trauma was 17.6%; it was 12.2% for penetrating PD trauma. Variables predicting mortality after pancreatic trauma were increasing age, ISS, haemodynamic compromise and not having undergone an operation. CONCLUSIONS Isolated pancreatic injuries are uncommon; most coexist with other injuries. In the UK, a high proportion of cases are due to blunt trauma, which differs from US and South African series. Mortality is high in the UK but comparison with other surgical series is difficult because of selection bias in their datasets.

Abstract
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) represents a monumental advance in the management of patients with pancreaticobiliary diseases, but is a complex and technically demanding procedure with the highest inherent risk of adverse events of all routine endoscopic procedures. Overall adverse event rates for ERCP are typically reported as 5-10%. The most commonly reported adverse events include post-ERCP pancreatitis, bleeding, perforation, infection (cholangitis), and cardiopulomary or "sedation related" events. This article evaluates patient-related and procedure-related risk factors for ERCP-related adverse events, and discusses strategies for the prevention, diagnosis and management of these events.

Abstract
Duodenal injuries in children are rare. However, we should keep in mind the possibility of duodenal injury in blunt abdominal trauma. Findings on imaging can be normal in spite of duodenal perforation and symptoms may become manifest later after trauma. Duodenal perforation diagnosed within 24 hours can be treated with primary closure and drainage. The safest operative treatment is pyloric exclusion or duodenal diverticularization and gastrojejunostomy or pancreaticoduodenectomy in most serious injuries. Delay in diagnosis is associated with increased complication rate, hospitalization and mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreaticoduodenectomy for trauma (PDT) is a rare procedure, reserved for severe pancreaticoduodenal injuries. Using the National Trauma Data Bank (NTDB), our aim was to compare outcomes of PDT patients to similarly injured patients who did not undergo a PDT. METHODS Patients with pancreatic or duodenal injuries treated with PDT (ICD-9-CM 52.7) were identified in the NTDB 2008–2010 Research Data Sets. We excluded those who underwent delayed PDT (>4 days). The PDT group (n = 39) was compared to patients with severe combined pancreaticoduodenal injuries (grade 4 or 5) who did not undergo PDT (non-PDT group, n = 38). Patients who died in the emergency department or did not undergo a laparotomy were excluded. Our primary outcome was death. Secondary outcomes were intensive care unit length of stay (LOS), hospital LOS, and total ventilator days. A multivariate model was used to determine predictors of in-hospital mortality within each group and in the overall cohort. RESULTS The non-PDT group had a significantly lower systolic blood pressure and Glasgow Coma Scale values at baseline and more severe duodenal, pancreatic, and liver injuries. There were no significant differences in outcomes between the two groups. The Injury Severity Score was the only independent predictor of mortality among PDT patients [odds ratio (OR) 1.12, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.01–1.24] and in the entire cohort (OR 1.06, 95 % CI 1.01–1.12). The operative technique did not influence any of the outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Compared to non-PDT, PDT did not result in improved outcomes despite a lower physiologic burden among PDT patients. More conservative procedures for high-grade injuries of the pancreaticoduodenal complex may be appropriate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the outcomes of jejunal serosal patch and jejunal pedicled flap procedures for the repair of duodenal injuries. METHODS The experimental animal-model study was conducted at Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Iran, in February 2013. Ten mixed-breed male dogs were selected and randomly divided into groups A and B. After general anaesthesia, a large duodenal defect was created in all animals. The defect was repaired with jejunal pedicled flap in group A and jejunal serosal patch in group B. Microscopic healing was scored according to epithelialisation, collagenisation, inflammation, ulcer and necrosis of samples. Kolmogorov-Smirnov and independent t-test were used to indicate normal distributions of data and statistical differences between the two groups respectively. RESULTS The weight of the animals ranged between 23 and 37 kg and the age range was 12-16 months. All dogs survived the procedures. Anastomotic leakage, intra-abdominal abscess or intestinal obstructions were not detected in gross examination. Healing score was significantly higher in the group A than group B (p < 0.011). However, in terms of surgical findings, no significant difference was detected between the groups (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION Applying jejunal pedicled flap for repairing large duodenal defects would lead to better histologic outcomes compared to jejunal serosal patch in dogs.
