Abstract
Perforation of the abdominal oesophagus from blunt trauma is an extremely rare injury. We report a case of an initially unrecognized oesophageal injury. The patient underwent an immediate laparotomy for haemorrhagic shock. The diagnosis was made by tomodensitometry and was delayed by modified radiological interpretation secondary to laparotomy. Finally, the outcome was favourable.Entities:
