  • Title: Strangulated left paraduodenal hernia in an infant.
    Author: Ramachandran P, Sridharan S.
    Journal: Pediatr Surg Int; 2003 Apr; 19(1-2):120-1. PubMed ID: 12721744.
    Abstract:
    Paraduodenal hernia is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction. It occurs typically in adults, but can also present in children. The symptoms include chronic abdominal pain and acute intestinal obstruction. Rapid evaluation must be followed by early surgery to avoid the morbidity and mortality associated with strangulation.
