“…Because mesenteric perforations and associated hernias are often found in infants with closed intestinal segments, they may be related to prenatal intestinal ischaemic accidents. In adults, mesenteric defects are caused mostly by previous gastrointestinal surgery, abdominal trauma, or intraperitoneal inflammation[ 8 , 9 ]. The presentation of a transverse mesocolic hernia in an adult with no history of trauma or prior abdominal surgery, as in this report, is rare.…”

In recent years, metabolomics research has become a hot spot in the screening and treatment of cancer. It is a popular technique for the quantitative characterization of small molecular compounds in biological cells, tissues, organs or organisms. Further study of the tumor revealed that amino acid changes may occur early in the tumor. The rapid growth and metabolism required for survival result in tumors exhibiting an increased demand for amino acids. An abundant supply of amino acids is important for cancer to maintain its proliferative driving force. Changes in amino acid metabolism can be used to screen malignant tumors and improve therapeutic outcomes. Therefore, it is particularly important to study the characteristics of amino acid metabolism in colorectal cancer. This article reviews several specific amino acid metabolism characteristics in colorectal cancer.

“…S MALL BOWEL OBSTRUCTION is most commonly caused by adhesions or external hernias. Internal hernias account for less than 1% of cases of obstruction 1 and are formed after a viscus protrudes through a ring of visceral or parietal peritoneum without a hernia sac. The occurrence of an internal hernia through a congenital or iatrogenic defect in the falciform ligament is extremely rare.…”

The occurrence of an internal hernia through a congenital or iatrogenic defect in the falciform ligament is extremely rare. In the era of minimally invasive surgery, we present an unusual case of small bowel obstruction after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. An 85-year-old white male presented to the emergency room 2 weeks after an uneventful cholecystectomy and complaining of a colicky, nonradiating right upper quadrant abdominal pain. Hydroxyiminodiacetic acid (HIDA) scan and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) performed revealed an open ductal system. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan was suggestive of a high-grade small bowel obstruction. Exploratory laparotomy revealed a herniated loop of distal ileum, passing from right to left through a defect in the falciform ligament created by the subxyphoid trochar. The surgeon should consider dividing the inferior leaf of the free edge of the falciform ligament, including the round ligament, should an aperture be created during laparoscopic port placement.
