Case Report: Intramesosigmoid hernia complicated by strangulated small-bowel obstruction

摘要

An intramesosigmoid hernia is 1 of the 3 rare types of sigmoid-related hernias that could be complicated by intestinal obstruction. Our patient presented with a clinical picture of intestinal obstruction. CT scan showed features of strangulated small-bowel obstruction secondary to a sigmoid-related hernia. This was confirmed intraoperatively to be an intramesosigmoid hernia. We share the radiological findings with intraoperative surgical correlation and discuss the imaging features described in the literature.
