A 34-year-old man presented with acute severe left-sided abdominal and flank pain with associated postprandial nausea and vomiting. CT imaging revealed findings suspicious for a closed loop small bowel obstruction. Intraoperative findings were that of a left paraduodenal hernia (of Landzert) secondary to a mesenteric defect immediately posterior to the ascending branch of the left colic artery. The defect was closed via minilaparotomy. Unfortunately, his postoperative course was complicated by small bowel obstruction which required further laparotomy and adhesiolysis. The patient eventually made a good recovery. Here, we present a rare case of intestinal obstruction and discuss the aetiologies and management of this unusual phenomenon.

Meckels diverticulum is a rare congenital anomaly of gastrointestinal tract, seen in 2% of population. It was first described by Guilhemus Fabricus Hildonus in 1598. Meckels diverticulum is an anomaly derived from incomplete obliteration of omphalo-mesenteric duct. It is rarely seen in adults, with prevalence of male to female of 2:1. Complications associated with Meckels diverticulum are hemorrhage, inflammation and intestinal obstruction. We present to you a case of 17 year old male with unusual mechanism of small bowel obstruction due to Meckels diverticulum.
