PURPOSE: Whilst situs inversus is associated with intestinal malrotation and volvulus particularly in infants, this is the first known report of acute intestinal obstruction in an adult patient with a situs anomaly specifically due to a congenital transmesenteric hernia.
CASE: A 54-year-old woman presented with a 12-h history of progressive abdominal pain. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan of the abdomen revealed an incidental finding of situs inversus abdominus, ischemic small bowel obstruction and a potential occlusive thrombus of the superior mesenteric artery. At operation, the cause of intestinal obstruction was found to be secondary to herniation of the intestine through a congenital mesenteric defect. The hernia was reduced and a strong pulse was subsequently felt in the distal superior mesenteric artery. The patient required resection of a segment of compromised small bowel, and was later anastomosed at a planned second laparotomy. Her laparostomy was closed using an absorbable BioA mesh.
CONCLUSION: A high index of suspicion and low threshold for exploratory surgery should be maintained in patients with major congenital abdominal anomalies presenting with an acute abdomen.
