ABSTRACT

Richter hernia results from herniation of the antimesenteric wall of the bowel without compromising its lumen. Insidious onset and misleading symptoms lead to delay in diagnosis and a high mortality. We report a case of Richter hernia, after ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement which was later reduced and the defect closed laparoscopically.

Key Words: Richter hernia, Complication, Laparoscopic management.
