Abstract
BACKGROUND: Surgical management of traumatic duodenal injury remains challenging. While various surgical techniques have been described in the attempt to reduce complications and mortality, recent data suggests that surgical approach using less invasive procedures might be associated with improved patient outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine the recent trend of surgical procedures performed for patients with duodenal injury and their outcome. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of the National Trauma Data Bank (NTDB) from 2002 to 2014 was performed. A total of 2163 patients who sustained a traumatic duodenal injury requiring surgical intervention were included. Patient characteristics, injury data, procedures, and outcomes were examined. Types of duodenal procedures and patient outcomes were compared between two study periods (2002-2006 vs. 2007-2014). RESULTS: The median age was 27 (IQR 20-39), 78.9% were male, and 63.8% sustained penetrating duodenal injury. The median injury severity score was 18 (IQR 13-26). In patients with isolated duodenal injury, the later study period (2007-2014) was significantly associated with the increased use of primary repair (OR 1.77; 95% CI 1.11-2.83, p = 0.017). Overall mortality was 11.7%. Patients in the later study group were significantly associated with lower odds of inhospital mortality (OR 0.47, 95% CI 0.22-0.95, p = 0.041). CONCLUSIONS: A progressive trend toward less invasive procedures for duodenal injury was noted in the current study. Inhospital mortality has improved in the late study period.
