Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Radiology
  • Surgical Anatomy

Background:

  • Internal hernias, particularly left para duodenal hernias, are uncommon causes of abdominal pain.
  • Diagnosis can be challenging due to their rarity and often non-specific clinical presentation.

Observation:

  • A case of internal left para duodenal hernia is presented in a 30-year-old woman with acute abdominal pain.
  • Diagnostic workup included ultrasound, barium upper gastrointestinal radiography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Findings:

  • CT revealed a well-defined intra-abdominal mass containing small bowel encased in peritoneum.
  • The mesenteric axis was displaced to the left, a key radiological feature.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering internal left para duodenal hernia in the differential diagnosis of acute abdominal pain.
  • Advanced imaging, especially spiral CT, significantly improves diagnostic accuracy for this rare entity, enabling timely surgical intervention.
