[Strangulated obturator hernia. Preoperative diagnosis].
Strangled obturator hernia is uncommon; 600 cases have been reported in the literature since 1994. The diagnosis of strangled obturator hernia is rarely made preoperatively. We report a case of preoperative diagnosis which would suggest that laparoscopic surgery would be an interesting technique allowing both diagnosis and complete exploration of the abdominal cavity providing prognosis information for assessment of the lesion and treatment.
