Operational findings and surgical procedures. The hernial sac containing the incarcerated small bowel is seen in the pre-peritonealspace at the cranial and internal sides of the internal inguinal ring (a). Opening of the hernial sac revealed severe congestion and necrosis of the incarcerated small bowel (b). The hernia neck is cut deeply to resect a 10-cm long portion of the necrotic incarcerated small bowel (c).
