Abstract

We report a case of 33 years old male, presented with colicky pain in left upper abdomen on and off since 15 days, one episode of bilious vomiting and abdominal distension with constipation since 2 days. A case of intestinal obstruction was diagnosed as a Left Paraduodenal Hernia[PDH] on contrast enhanced computed tomography of the abdomen(CECT) and managed with laparoscopic repair. Through this case report, we want to give the message that PDH though rare should be considered as a differential diagnosis in a case of intestinal obstruction and can be managed successfully with laparoscopic approach even in an emergency situation.
