title: A rare cause of ileus: late jejunal stricture following blunt abdominal trauma.
abstract: Small intestinal stricture forming in the late phase following nonpenetrating abdominal trauma is rare cause of ileus. It has often been suggested that it is result of localized feeding deficiency on the intestinal wall related to minor trauma in the mesentery. Laparoscopy has been increasingly used for diagnosis and treatment. Diagnosis should be supported by pathological analyses in case of intestinal stenosis related to blunt abdominal traumas.
