description Duodenal injury following blunt abdominal trauma is a relatively unusual complication, and it may sometimes be difficult to distinguish a duodenal hematoma from duodenal perforation.

We experienced a case of delayed manifestation of a duodenal intramural hematoma that was surgically treated.
