Extra-hepatic biliary injury secondary to blunt abdominal trauma: A successful management strategy

چکیده
Extra-hepatic bile duct injury from blunt abdominal trauma is uncommon. Complete traumatic transection of the common bile duct (CBD) with subsequent complication of a choledochoduodenal fistula is extremely rare and only a handful of reports are found in the medical literature.
