Despite the major advances in the field of trauma management. High grade Blunt pancreatic injury remains a disease with both high mortality and morbidity specially in cases of delayed diagnosis. Herein we will present a case report of 31 years old Saudi male who was involved in motor vehicle accident with a delayed diagnosis of pancreatic injury associated with other multiple injuries. He was diagnosed late on 12th day of admission during laparotomy where a missed high-grade pancreatic fracture at the neck of pancreas, massive pancreatic ascites and extensive pancreatic necrosis was found. Open abdominal closure technique with mesh mediated fascial closure and Vacuum assisted closure was used to improve both respiratory function and abdominal disease through repeated debridement with peritoneal lavage and sequential approximation of fascia. He responded well gradually and offered definitive closure of fascia and feeding jejunostomy. Unfortunately, he had a sudden stroke followed by rapid deterioration then expired 48 hours later.

CONTEXT: Bluish discoloration and swelling of the scrotum in newborns can arise from a number of diseases, including torsion of the testes, orchitis, scrotal or testicular edema, hydrocele, inguinal hernia, meconium peritonitis, hematocele, testicular tumor and traumatic hematoma. Forty-two cases of scrotal abnormalities as signs of neonatal adrenal hemorrhage were found in the literature. CASE REPORT: We present a case of scrotal hematoma due to adrenal hemorrhage in a newborn. Conservative treatment with clinical follow-up was adopted, with complete resolution within 10 days. The possible differential diagnoses are reviewed and discussed.
