Treves' field pouch hernia: our experience and literature review.
Treves' field pouch hernia (TFPH) is an unusual type of congenital internal hernia. Although eight cases of TFPH have been reported in the English literature, they were seldom diagnosed preoperatively with high mortality rates. We describe a 12-year-old girl with TFPH diagnosed as an internal hernia on computed tomography and confirmed laparoscopically, and review the literature.
