[Cecal hernia through the Winslow's hiatus].
A new case of cecal herniation through the foramen of Winslow is reported in a 67 year-old woman, preoperatively diagnosed by water-soluble contrast enema. Herniation through Winslow's foramen is an uncommon variety of internal hernias. Of 144 cases reported up to 1991 in the world literature, the cecum was involved in only 25-30%; and less than 10% of these were radiologically diagnosed before surgery.
