“…Once diagnosed, a left PDH should be repaired surgically as it carries a 50% lifetime risk of complications . Principles of surgical management include reduction of the herniated bowel, resection of the ischemic intestinal segment, if any, and closure of the hernial orifice.…”

Internal hernia is the cause of only 1% of intestinal obstructions, and left paraduodenal hernias (PDH) comprise about 50% of these cases. As the presentation of PDH is varied, diagnosis is often delayed. Here, we report two patients with left PDH presenting in a subacute manner and diagnosed rapidly with the help of a CT scan. Both underwent successful laparoscopic repair; one patient had closure of the defect, and the other required excision of the sac prior to the closure. We review 21 cases of left PDH treated laparoscopically that were previously reported in the literature, including 14 from Asian countries.

“…Internal hernias account for less than 1% of all abdominal hernias . They are responsible for 0.2%–0.9% of intestinal obstructions and 1%–4% of intestinal obstructions attributed to hernias . Although a rare entity, paraduodenal hernia (PDH) remains the most common internal hernia in a virgin abdomen.…”

“…Internal hernias can be congenital or acquired and constitute a rare cause of intestinal obstruction. They represent 0.2–0.9% of all small intestinal obstructions and 4.1% of acute intestinal obstruction caused by hernia 2 3. Congenital internal hernias are classified according to their location with more than half of them being reported as paraduodenal hernias, a result of abnormal midgut rotation during embryonic development 1–3.…”

Left paraduodenal hernia: a rare cause of small bowel obstruction in the elderly

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Left paraduodenal hernia is a rarely found condition in which the small bowel herniates through a congenital peritoneal defect located behind the 4th portion of duodenum. It usually courses with non-specific symptoms and a widely variable clinical presentation which makes preoperative diagnosis very difficult. It has been associated with a high rate of complications, including bowel strangulation and even death. Prompt surgical intervention consisting of intraoperative surgeon's awareness and recognition of this condition are crucial in order to improve postoperative morbidity and mortality. The authors present a case of a 73-year-old man with acute intestinal obstruction as the first presentation of a left paraduodenal hernia.

“…Internal hernia results from protrusion of one or more abdominal viscera through an intraparietal opening with the herniated viscera remaining inside the peritoneal cavity. And it account for less than 1% of all abdominal hernias (1) .Paraduodenal hernia (PDH) is the most common rare internal hernia, accounting for about 50% of all internal hernias. About 3 quarters of PDH are left, and the male-tofemale ration is 3:1.…”

Background: Left paraduodenal hernia (PDH) is a mesenterico-parietal hernia with retroperitoneal retrocolic herniation of the small bowel into a sac formed by a peritoneal fold located near the fourth portion of the duodenum. It’s a rare cause of hydronephrosis by compressed the upper left ureter. Traditionally, PDH are treated by laparotomy.Case presentation: An 8-year-old boy’s primary purpose was the treatment of cryptorchidism. But hydronephrosis was detected and it was induced by left paraduodenal hernia. Diagnostic laparoscopic exploration confirmed the diagnosis left paraduodenal hernia secondary hydronephrosis. Cryptorchidism was the primary purpose of treatment. The patient was treated with laparoscopic surgery, fixed left paraduodenal hernia, released the ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) and treated hydronephrosis.Conclusion: Secondary surgery for treating cryptorchidism would be performed and the long-term follow up was necessary.This case suggests us a rare cause of hydronephrosis in children. Every why has a wherefore. We must pay much attention to any unusual details in our medical work even though these details aren’t related to our primary objects.
