title: [Stenosis of the small intestine after strangulated hernia].
abstract: Return to the abdominal cavity of an intestinal loop which had suffered from ischemia, may induce, after a free interval, disordered transit or frank intestinal obstruction, sometimes peritonitis. This is always dangerous, especially in elderly patients. The authors report 5 cases which illustrate this danger, in daily surgery, and recall the rules for treatment of strangulated hernia.
