Abstract

Here, we report the case of an 84-year-old woman with acute mechanical intestinal obstruction (AMIO) who was admitted to ourEmergency Department. Computed tomography (CT) scan revealed an incarcerated bilateral obturator hernia, and the defect wasresolved using transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) technique with polypropylene mesh. The patient was administered an oral regimentwo days after the operation. The patient stayed in the intensive care unit for 4 days and was uneventfully discharged on the9th postoperative day. Follow-up was scheduled at the 6th month, during which no adverse events were detected and the patient didnot report any complaints. Obturator hernia is among the differential diagnoses of intestinal obstruction requiring early diagnosis andprompt surgical intervention. Laparoscopic approach is less invasive compared with open surgery, and it can be attempted in casespresenting with no sign of ischemia or peritonitis. TAPP technique should be preferred since it allows the control of all intraabdominalpathologies and the viability of the intestines.

Özet

Acil cerrahi kliniğimize akut mekanik intestinal obstrüksiyon semptomları ile başvuran 84 yaşında kadın hasta sunuldu. Bilgisayarlı tomografi görüntülemesinde iki taraflı inkarsere obturator herni saptandı. Defektler poliprolen yama kullanılarak Trans Abdominal Pre Peritoneal (TAPP) tekniği uygulanarak tamir edildi. Hasta ameliyat sonrası dört gün boyunca yoğun bakım ünitesinde takip edildi, dokuzuncu gün sorunsuz taburcu edildi. Altıncı ay kontrollerinde herhangi bir sorunla karşılaşılmadı. Obturator herni, intestinal obstrüksiyonun ayırıcı tanısında düşünülmesi gereken, erken tanı ve uygun cerrahi tedavi gerektiren bir kliniktir. Laparoskopik yaklaşım, açık yaklaşıma göre daha az invaziv olup, iskemi ve peritonit bulgusu olmayan olgularda denenebilir. Bu hastalarda TAPP tekniği, tüm intraabdominal patololerin değerlendirilmesi ve bağırsakların görüntülenebilmesi nedeniyle tercih edilmelidir
