Abstract Aim Nowadays, in vast majority of emergency patients with gastrointestinal obstruction laparoscopy is not the treatment of choice. In our department laparoscopy is routinely used in emergency admitted patients, also those with abovementioned condition, sometimes yielding unexpected and thrilling results. The aim of this work is to present a laparoscopic internal hernia repair with simultaneous “Phrygian-cap-type” gallbladder excision, performed on a patient with small intestine obstruction and chronic acalculous cholecystitis. Material and Methods A 57-year-old patient was admitted to our department as an emergency, with a one week history of symptomatic cholecystitis accompanied by gastrointestinal obstruction. CT revealed atypical suprahepatic displacement of the small intestine. An attempt of conservative treatment failed after the re-initiation of oral nutrition. The patient was qualified for laparoscopy. Results An anatomical variant of the liver ligaments was visualized with two defects in the anteriorly displaced coronary ligament and shortening of the falciform ligament. Those defects formed the hernia ring entrapping a small intestine of a total length of about 1.5 m. The falciform ligament was dissected. To avoid re-entrapment of the intestine, most of the coronary ligament was severed. Consecutively the inflamed gallbladder was removed. The unusual anatomical variation of its structure, the so-called “Phrygian cap”, was an additional difficulty. The postoperative course was uneventful. Conclusions The presented material demonstrates the possibility of immediate treatment of intestinal obstruction, even in a complicated cases, with laparoscopic manner, without the need of conversion to the open method.

Colonic atresia is the rarest outcome of all gastrointestinal type of internal hernia. We report a case of neonate with atresia of the transverse colon caused by herniation of the transverse colon through a defect in falciform-ligament.
