Radiologic imaging of herniation of the small bowel through a defect in the broad ligament

Abstract

Internal herniation through the broad ligament is extremely rare. We report a case in which radiologic examinations including computed tomography (CT) were performed. A strangulated loop in the Douglas fossa was well-demonstrated by CT. CT can provide some clues to the diagnosis of this condition.
