Internal hernia with small bowel obstruction

Discussion:

This is an uncommon, but a very nice example, of a small bowel obstruction due to an internal hernia.

In fact, the segment of small bowel contained within the internal hernia was infarcted at the time of laparotomy. 

Internal hernias can be difficult to diagnosis, even on CT, but this is an excellent example.
