Abstract
Small bowel perforation is an infrequent injury following blunt abdominal trauma, especially in a sporting context. We presented the case of a patient who experienced a jejunal perforation after receiving a kick to the abdomen during a kickboxing match. An emergency laparoscopy was performed and the perforation was repaired with intracorporeal suturing.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
