Abstract:
Objective To study the early diagnosis,surgical treatment options,prevention and management of complications in patients with duodenal trauma.Methods All patients with duodenal trauma treated operatively from January 2009 to December 2018 were studied retrospectively.Factors including sex,age,cause of injury,AAST grading,diagnostic method,operative procedure,therapeutic effectiveness,complications,and factors related to death were analyzed.The "double-tube gastrostomy" technique consisting of duodenal decompression and jejunal feeding as recommend by the authors were used in severe cases.Results Blunt trauma occurred in 66 of 86 patients (76.7％).The diagnosis of duodenal trauma was made preoperatively based on abdominal signs,peritoneocentesis,and imaging in 32 patients (37.2％).The remaining 54 patients (62.8％),with duodenal injury was detected during emergency laparotomy.All the 86 patients underwent surgical intervention which included simple suturing,pedicled jejunal flap,segmental resection and anastomosis,Roux-en-Y duodenojejunostomy,diverticularization,and Whipple's procedure using the principle of Damage Control Surgery (DCS).Postoperative morbidity occurred in 15 patients (17.4％).There was a high incidence of duodenal (or pancreatic,biliary) fistulae.The overall mortality rate was 12.8％ (in 11 patients).The causes of deaths were mainly massive bleeding and poly-trauma.Conclusions To decrease morbidity and mortality rates,early diagnosis and surgical intervention were critical.The choice of surgical treatment procedures should be based on the duodenal trauma grading and whether there were associated injuries.For patients with a combined pancreaticoduodenal trauma,DCS is a wise procedure to adopt.The double-tube gastrostomy technique as recommended by the authors is beneficial to severe cases in decreasing the incidences of postoperative duodenal and jejunal obstruction.
