Abstract
We report a case of an isolated duodenal injury following blunt abdominal trauma and highlight its management challenges. The diagnosis of duodenal injury was early but associated with the hemodynamic instability of the patient. A short resuscitation was done before admitting the patient to the operating room. The Jordan technique was the surgical procedure performed on this patient.
Keywords: Management, challenges, isolated duodenal trauma
