“…Multiple studies and reports have supported and challenged these observations, but none have been proved convincingly [8,9]. A true epigastric hernia with proper sac and bowel contents is a rare occurrence, and strangulation of bowel contents is even rarer, reported only by a few case reports worldwide [3,10,11].…”

An epigastric hernia is a rare type of abdominal hernia, described in the literature mostly as small, containing only preperitoneal fat. A large true epigastric hernia with herniation of the abdominal viscera is even rarer. Only a few case reports have given an account of strangulation in such an epigastric hernia. This case report describes a middle-aged, morbidly obese man with a big epigastric hernia presenting with incarceration and acute abdominal pain. Emergency surgical exploration revealed a 7 cm midline defect in the rectus sheath and a 30 cm segment of the jejunum and a 6 cm segment of the transverse colon were gangrenous. The gangrenous bowel segments were resected, and an end-to-end jejuno-jejunal and colocolic anastomosis were done. The patient had an uneventful postoperative recovery.

Most epigastric hernia contains preperitoneal fat or the omentum. Intraabdominal organ herniation is rare and, if present, contains mostly small bowel. Incarcerated epigastric hernia having the stomach as content is infrequent, and only one case has been reported in the literature so far. Herein, we report a rare case of incarcerated epigastric hernia that contains the stomach and was managed with emergency hernioplasty.
