Abstract

A defect in the broad ligament may be congenital or acquired. Due to such a defect, an internal hernia may develop. This usually involves the small bowel. We report a case of internal herniation of the small bowel due to a defect in the broad ligament diagnosed perioperatively. Computerized tomography is helpful in preoperative diagnosis of the condition and should be considered if the condition is suspected clinically. The defect should be closed surgically.
