Abstract

Internal hernias are an infrequent cause of small bowel obstruction with transmesosigmoid herniation being very rare, especially in patients with no history of abdominal surgery or trauma. Early surgical intervention is important in acute presentation to reduce the high morbidity and mortality rates associated with this disease.
