“…The first instance of a congenital transmesenteric hernia presenting in an adult was reported by Moulay et al in 1971 [4]. The incidence of congenital IHs presenting with SBO and bowel ischemia in adulthood is extremely rare, with <30 case reports in published literature up to 2023, to the best of our knowledge [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. Since there are so few case reports documented and published, no systematic reviews outlining the presentation, ideal course of management, or outcomes are available for comparison.…”

“…Congenital IHs are rarer, even more so in adults, accounting for barely 8% of all iHs, usually due to embryological or developmental defects, often undiagnosed, and require a high index of clinical suspicion [2]. Congenital IHs are a common cause of SBO in infants and pediatric age groups, but are extremely rare among adults, with only 28 cases documented in published literature [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. They often remain undiagnosed, usually being an intra-operative diagnosis, and hence require a low threshold for surgical intervention.…”
