Abstract
A male patient was admitted emergently with acute small bowel obstruction. An urgent laparotomy revealed, a loop of gangrenous ileum herniated through the omental bursa. The compromised bowel was resected and a primary anastomosis was performed. This case report allows us to discuss the diagnostic and therapeutic features of this rare condition.
