Small bowel perforation is a rare injury following blunt abdominal trauma, and is rarely reported in a sports setting. Computed tomography (CT) appears to be the diagnostic method of choice to assess hemodynamic stable patients. A delay in diagnosis and definitive treatment of bowel injury may result in increased morbidity and mortality. Our case was a 16 years old male with abdominal blunt trauma, we diagnosed perforation of Jejenum and ileum with Laparatomy and negative FAST. The treatment for small intestine lesions with smaller defects is the primary closure while bowel resection is the treatment of choice for larger lesions and Ischemic segments.
