Hepatodiaphragmatic interposition of the colon--an unusual case of combined anterior and posterior types treated with an original operative technique: report of a case.
Hepatodiaphragmatic interposition of the colon is rare. The posterior type is rarer than the anterior type. We observed a case of combined anterior and posterior types and used an original operative technique with a Prolene mesh to exclude the dead space and prevent recurrence.
