| Abstract: | Management of patients presenting with bowel obstruction secondary to oburator hernia is difficult due to the rarity of the condition. Herein, two patients with incarcerated obturator hernia are presented, and the role of diagnostic laparoscopy in their management is discussed. A new surgical approach, transabdominal repair with dual mesh, is described. |
