  • Title: A clinical conundrum with a radiological answer.
    Author: Sutton L, Myers A, Gupte C.
    Journal: Ann R Coll Surg Engl; 2015 Apr; 97(3):e43-5. PubMed ID: 26263826.
    Abstract:
    An 82-year-old woman with longstanding medial thigh pain presented with a 5-day history of constipation, vomiting, abdominal pain and distension. She was unable to pass flatus for the preceding 24 hours and had a past history of laparoscopic abdominal surgery. Computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis revealed a right-sided obturator hernia containing a dilated loop of small bowel. She underwent emergency surgery for a right obturator hernia repair by limited laparotomy and was discharged after an extended stay complicated by postoperative atrial fibrillation.
