It is important to determine the mechanism of injury as it influences the management decision. The colon and small bowels are the most commonly injured hollow organs in penetrating injury. A bowel injury in trauma isa leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Managing postoperative bowel injury in paediatric required a multidisciplinary team approach for a successful outcome. A well-prepared surgical team with a well-equipped operation room, availability of blood substitutes and the necessary investigations are all the important links in the management of the patient of bowel evisceration.
