Abstract
|
|
|
Transmesenteric hernia is a rare cause of small bowel obstruction and is caused by congenital mesenteric defect or postoperative complication. At first because it is a rare type of internal hernia and also clinical simptoms can be nonspecific or intermittent, it is seldom diagnosed before laparotomy or autopsy. We report 3 cases, 1-, 2-, and 4-year-old children and found a small bowel gangrene caused by a congenital defect of mesentery. We describe autopsy findings, clinical simptoms and clinical diagnosis.
