“…IH are rare, the most common form of IH is the para-duodenal hernia, while the TOH is the rarest form and represents 1-4% of all IH, and the TOH has a collet but no hernia sac [ 1 – 3 ]. Diagnosis of TOH is usually made after the age of 50 years [ 3 , 6 ].…”

“…Patients describe recurrent and ambiguous symptoms, combining paroxysmal abdominal pain, nausea, bloating and constipation that disappear spontaneously [ 3 , 4 , 7 ]. In more acute and irreversible forms the patient consults for AIO which is the manifestation of complicated form [ 1 , 4 , 6 ]. Complicated internal hernias represent less than 1% of all the AIO [ 1 , 3 ], radiography of the abdomen made in this emergency circumstances shows nonspecific central and small air-fluid level caused by the small bowel obstruction.…”

“…Adult's Internal hernias (IH) are rare [ 1 , 2 ], they match to the protrusion of the intestine through a congenital or acquired intraperitoneal aperture [ 1 – 3 ], and must be differentiated from postoperative internal hernias. IH represent less than 1% of all acute intestinal obstruction (AIO) [ 1 , 3 , 4 ]. Even the advances in imaging technics, diagnosis of this disease remains difficult and it is still often made during the operative time [ 3 , 5 , 6 ].…”

Transomental hernia is the rarest form of internal hernias. Clinical expression of this pathology is ambiguous and diagnosis is often made at complication phase, after irreversible strangulation of the herniated loop. Radiological diagnosis is still difficult and intraoperative exploration usually allows discovering this pathology when patient is operated for acute intestinal obstruction. Treatment is surgical and aims to treat intestinal obstruction and prevent recurrence. We describe the case of a 65 years old male operated for a preoperatively suspected internal hernia; surgical exploration found a transomental hernia trough the greater omentum.
