Internal Hernia of the Greater Omentum: Cadaveric Findings of a Previously Unreported Variant
نویسندگان
چکیده
Transomental hernias (TOHs) are a rare finding, constituting a fraction of all intestinal hernias. Here, we report the cadaveric discovery of a spontaneous TOH involving the sigmoid colon in an 82-year-old female and discuss the relevant literature. To our knowledge, a TOH involving the sigmoid colon has not been previously reported.
