In Child Surgery clinics of the Leningrad City since 1955 to 1974 eight children, aged from 3 to 15 years, were operated upon for this kind of trauma. The diagnosis of duodenal injuries intraoperatively is based on the presence of retroperitoneal hematoma, emphysema in the retroperitoneal space, yellow-green staining of the posterior peritoneal leaf.
