We report a rare case of early onset type Trocar Site Hernia (TSH) producing in the right lower abdominal quadrant of a 64-year old obese woman. The patient was admitted in the emergency room for abdominal pain producing four days after laparoscopic adnexectomy. The hernia atypically externalized in two-steps creating two superposed concentric small bowel strangulating hernias producing through two distinctive superposed orifices. A precise and complete anatomic diagnosis was made by contrast enhanced 64-row multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). The imaging features are presented with a short review of the literature. The case emphasizes the high performances of MDCT for the early diagnosis of Trocar Site Hernias. |
