    Abstract:
    An 86-year-old female hospitalized for right femoral fracture complained of a sudden abdominal pain and vomited. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) of the abdomen showed an ileal closed loop with dilatation of the oral side intestine. She was diagnosed with a bowel obstruction due to a paracecal hernia with incarceration and underwent an emergency operation. Under laparoscopy, the responsible ileum was incarcerated into the paracolic sulcus and strangulated. After releasing the strangulation by cutting the hernia hilum, the incarcerated ileum did not show any necrotic change. In this case, the CECT suggested paracecal hernia, showing the characteristic position between the cecum and the intestinal loop, which we successfully treated with a single incisional laparoscopic surgery.
