A Case Report on Bowel Evisceration Following Blunt Abdominal Trauma

Bowel evisceration following blunt abdominal trauma is a very rare occurrence. Here, we report a unique case of 30 year old male patient presented with alleged history of road traffic accident with injury over anterior abdominal wall by handlebar of autorickshaw resulting into evisceration of small bowel loops. On admission patient was vitally stable and abdominal exploration with resection of gangrenous eviscerated small bowel loop with side to side ileo-ileal anastomosis with primary repair of abdominal wall defect was performed. A brief overview of literature related to this rare trauma scenario is presented here.
