Abstract
Drain site small bowel evisceration represents a small but potentially serious risk following abdominal drain removal. We present the case of a patient in whom removal of an abdominal drain was complicated by small bowel evisceration requiring surgical intervention. Strategies for management, consequences and potential preventive measures are discussed.Entities:
