Abstract:
Introduction: Internal hernia is considered under malrotation or defective rotation of mid-gut. Lack of fixation of the mesentery of the right or left colon may result in the formation of potential spaces. Entrapment of the mid-gut in these peritoneal sacs leads to a mesocolic hernia. Left mesocolic hernia occurs in 75% of internal hernias.
