We report the case of a 69-year-old man with a history of esophagogastric junction cancer (Barrett’s esophageal cancer; pT1b [SM], N0, M0, pStage IA) that was surgically resected 2 years prior to the present episode. Recurrence was not observed during follow-up. Following complaints of dysphagia and abdominal pain, computed tomography revealed signs of internal hernia. Thus, laparoscopic exploration was performed. Intraoperatively, accumulation of chylous ascites accompanying the internal hernia through the jejunojejunostomy mesenteric defect was observed, which was successfully treated with laparoscopic hernia reduction and defect closure by sutures without intestinal resection. Here, we discuss the case and report that along with previous studies, our study suggests that chylous ascites might be a reliable sign of intestinal viability for herniated intestines.

Abstract The natural history of our moral stance told here in this commentary reveals the close nexus of morality and basic social-cognitive capacities. Big mysteries about morality thus transform into smaller and more manageable ones. Here, I raise questions regarding the conceptual, ontogenetic, and evolutionary relations of the moral stance to the intentional and group stances and to shared intentionality.
