Abstract
<p> We report a case of a gastric rupture due to seat-belt injury. A 5-year-old girl, who was involved in a traffic accident, was transferred to our hospital. She was sitting in the seat behind the driver and was wearing a seat belt. Computed tomography revealed intra-abdominal free air and fluid collection. Emergency laparotomy was performed and revealed complete gastric wall tearing and food leakage from the penetration. The injured gastric wall was sutured layer by layer. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 8 without any complications. Traumatic gastric perforation is a rare condition and we suspect that the seat belt was not worn properly. Wearing seat belts properly is essential to protect children in automobiles.</p>
