Abstrakt:	Idiopathic sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis is a clinical entity characterized by partial or complete encasement of the digestive tract by a fibrous membrane. The preoperative diagnosis is difficult to establish. The diagnosis of sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis should be considered for patients without any surgical history and admitted for intestinal obstruction, especially for patients having peritoneal dialysis. We herein report the case of a 50‐year‐old man with idiopathic encapsulating peritonitis complicated by intestinal obstruction and ischemia. Idiopathic sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis is a rare disease. The diagnosis is made generally during a surgical procedure. Surgery seems to be the best management option for patients with severe signs of intestinal obstruction. Total resection of membrane avoids recurrences but it is associated with higher morbidity and mortality [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
