Abstract
A 3-year-old girl presented with a protein-losing enteropathy caused by left paraduodenal hernia, as diagnosed by computed tomography and a small-bowel follow-through image. The patient received surgical treatment, and her postoperative course was uneventful. Nineteen days later, the serum protein and albumin had recovered to normal levels. As well as providing the first description of left paraduodenal hernia accompanied with protein-losing enteropathy, we also review the pertinent literature.Entities:
