Postsacrectomy hernias are uncommon and can present with different signs and symptoms, including constipation, fecal incontinence, bowel obstruction, pain, and posterior bulging. We report a 50-year-old man who underwent sacrectomy for malignant fibrosarcoma complicated with sacral hernia. He presented with obstructive symptoms resulting from a strictured segment of herniated sigmoid colon and underwent bowel resection along with repair of his hernia. We additionally present a review of the literature and treatment of this rare disease.
