Core Tip	Transomental hernias are among the rarest type (1%) of all internal hernias, often being either iatrogenic or post-traumatic. More rarely, a spontaneous herniation may occur. We report a case of an 86-year-old male with a small bowel obstruction and no past surgical or traumatic abdominal history. Contrast-enhanced multi-detector row computed tomography showed findings consistent with a strangulated small bowel volvulus. At laparotomy, however, no derotation had to be performed but up to 100 cm of gangrenous small bowel loops had to be resected because of a strangulated transomental hernia which was prospectively overlooked but could then be retrospectively appreciated.
