Abstract
Mesocolic hernias are a rare cause of small bowel obstruction that occurs when a loop of small bowel herniates through a defect in the mesocolon. We present a case of a 35-year-old male with a mesocolic hernia causing small bowel obstruction, who was successfully treated with laparoscopic reduction and repair. The patient had an uneventful recovery and was discharged on postoperative day 3. Mesocolic hernias should be considered in the differential diagnosis of small bowel obstruction, and prompt diagnosis and surgical intervention are essential to prevent complications such as bowel ischemia and perforation. Laparoscopic treatment can be a safe and effective option for the management of mesocolic hernias. This case report highlights the clinical presentation, radiological features, and surgical management of mesocolic hernias, with a focus on the role of laparoscopy in the treatment of this rare condition.
