Surgical management of post-traumatic transvaginal herniation of small intestine in a third-world country.

We present a case of a 26-year-old woman with a small bowel herniating from her vagina following traumatic injury from a road traffic accident. The patient was taken immediately to operating theatre for repair of her uterine defect and small bowel resection. The patient required eventual return to theatre for subtotal hysterectomy and recovered well after her surgeries. She was discharged home without any further complications and in good condition. © BMJ Publishing Group Limited 2019. No commercial re-use. See rights and permissions. Published by BMJ.
