Incidental Finding of Ascaris in Peritoneal Cavity During Laparotomy for Blunt Trauma Abdomen: A Rare Case.

migration from the intestine into the peritoneal cavity is rarely seen and the usual presentation is the acute abdomen. Our case report is of a young male who got admitted after a roadside accident with polytrauma including blunt trauma abdomen. When the patient was taken up for exploratory laparotomy, a freely lying tubular structure was noticed in the pelvis and small intestinal perforation. On inspection, it turned out to be an worm. This is a case report of a rare presentation of with jejunal perforation following blunt trauma. This blunt trauma could have been the cause of an intestinal perforation resulting from a concealed presence of an impending perforation.
