ABSTRACT: Lesions
resulting from duodenal involvement are rare. Their diagnosis and management
remain difficult because of the topographic location of most of the duodenum in the retroperitoneum. We report a case
of isolated duodenal rupture. At the
time of the first operation, the duodenal lesion had gone unnoticed.
During our management, we discovered a rupture of the lower knee of the second
duodenum and we performed a triple anastomosis after the closure of the ends (proximal and distal). The immediate postoperative
course was complicated by the death of the patient on the second day of
surgery. Duodenal lesions have much mortality
which is increased by the delay in diagnosis and management.
