Lower Lumbar

Petit’s hernia is a rare defect in the abdominal wall located in the lower lumbar triangle. The herniation in the Petiti trigonum is complicated by bowel incarceration in about 9% of cases, most often of the large bowel. We present a case report of a 73-year-old patient with clinical manifestations of large bowel obstrution. The patient was admitted and indicated for urgent surgery. Incarcerated left lumbar hernia in the Petit’s triangle with herniation of sigmoid colon that showed no signs of ischemia was found. Reposition of the sigmoid colon and hernioplasty of the lumbar hernia was performed. There were no postoperative complications and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 9. The presented case report shows that the lumbar hernia (Petit) may result in bowel obstruction and thus may cause a life-threatening condition that requires urgent surgical intervention.

Gall Stone Ileus

Gallstone ileus is an uncommon and often life-threatening complication of cholelithiasis. In this case report, we discuss a difficult diagnostic case of gallstone ileus presenting as small gut obstruction with ischemia. A 56-year-old female presented with abdominal pain and vomiting. A CT scan was performed and showed an evolving bowel obstruction with features of gut ischemia with pneumobilia although no frank hyper density suggestive of a gallstone was noted. The patient underwent emergency surgery and a 60 mm obstructing calculus was removed from the patient's jejunum, with a formal tube cholecystostomy. JMS 2018: 21 (2):117-119

Meckel’s diverticulum is a common anomaly of the gastrointestinal tract. The most common complications of Meckel’s diverticulum are inflammation, bleeding and obstruction. We present a 12-year-old boy with bowel obstruction due to phytobezoar in a Meckel’s diverticulum. We describe diagnostic difficulties and our surgery approach comparing it to the literature.
