Abdominal bleeding secondary to isolated mesenteric injury following blunt abdominal trauma: A case report
Isolated mesenteric injuries are very rare in clinical practice, and their clinical symptoms and signs are nonspecific, which makes them prone to misdiagnosis and oversight. When a patient satisfies the 4 requirements listed below: abdominal hemorrhage or hematoma; a history of abdominal trauma; no damage to high-risk organs like the liver or spleen; the CT-detected signs of mesenteric injury. Abdominal paracentesis or laparoscopy should be conducted to confirm the diagnosis and initiate further treatment.
