Popis: Anterior abdominal wall incisional hernias can occasionally present as acute intestinal obstruction. Incisional hernias occurring at uncommon sites or after uncommon surgeries may contribute to diagnostic dilemmas. Herein, we report the case of a 53-year-old lady who presented with obstructed incisional hernia following autologous iliac bone grafting. We report this as a rare case of obstructed incisional hernia following an orthopedic procedure.
