| Popis: | Isolated gallbladder injury, secondary to a blunt abdominal trauma, is a rare finding in children.The presence of vague symptoms and the unknown dynamic of the trauma may increase the diagnostic challenge especially in pediatrics.A conservative management has been proposed in some particular cases in adults, but remains controversial in children.We report a case of a 5 year old boy who presented an isolated gallbladder lesion secondary to a blunt abdominal trauma.The surgical treatment was delayed for non-medical reasons, which gave us the possibility to try a conservative approach. Keywords: Isolated, Gallbladder injury, Blunt trauma, Conservative approach |
