Abstract: Introduction: Transmesenteric hernia describes an internal abdominal herniation through an opening in the mesentery. It is a very rare finding especially in pregnant women.

Despite a delay due to a precipitated labour and delivery successfully managed her. Conclusion: Clinicians when faced with similar features in a pregnant woman should consider transmesenteric hernia.
