Herniation through the foramen of Winslow presenting as obstructive jaundice.

Herniation through the foramen of Winslow is a rare variety of paraduodenal hernia. We report a 19-month-old child with obstructive jaundice due to midgut herniation through the foramen of Winslow with associated volvulus. The herniation and volvulus were precipitated by intestinal malrotation. The patient underwent extraamniotic silo repair of exomphalos major in the neonatal period. Investigation for malrotation is recommended after extraamniotic closure of exomphalos.
