[Strangulated obturator hernia. Contribution of abdominal x-ray computed tomography].
We report two cases of obturator hernia diagnosed on CT scans. This examination contributes to both diagnosis and evaluation of prognosis allowing for improved treatment by reducing the number of intestinal resections. Abdominal CT is becoming the first line examination for all occlusion or subocclusion syndromes with no obvious diagnosis.
