“…A full thickness blunt gastric rupture is repaired by primary two-layer technic with absorbable suture after a proper debridement and refreshing of edges [7,13,15,21]. In case of complete gastric transection direct repair by end-to-end anastomosis has been practiced by most authors [15,22]. In situations in which there is an associated duodenal injury requiring bypass, a gastrojejunostomy is appropriate [15].…”

Gastric ruptures in blunt abdominal traumatism is extremely rare accounting for 0.02 to 1.7 % of cases of blunt abdominal injuries. They are frequently associated with other intra- and or extra-abdominal lesions, which generally influence morbidity and mortality. We report two cases of gastric rupture, one with splenic and maxillo-facial injury, the other with forearm fracture, with good outcome after surgical treatment.

A rare injury of stomach associated with vertebral trauma in a 10-year-old girl, a victim of a traffic accident, is presented. Early X-ray and computerized tomography scan revealed no free abdominal air, only signs of pancreas contusion and fracture of the Th 12 and L 1 vertebral body were evident. Transection of stomach was revealed during endoscopy (an attempt to perform retrograde cholangio-pancreaticography) 20 h after the trauma. Primary suture of the rupture was performed. Sepsis and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome developed in the postoperative course. The girl subsequently underwent four laparotomies for abdominal infection, bleeding and colonic stricture. After resolution of the abdominal disorders the girl underwent surgical stabilization of spine. Currently, 2 years after trauma, she is doing well without any gastroenterologic dysfunction.
