Richter's hernia is a rare but serious surgical emergency involving the entrapment or strangulation of part of the bowel's circumference in the hernial orifice, often without causing complete luminal obstruction. This case report describes a man in his 70s presenting with a 3-day history of abdominal pain and vomiting, despite normal bowel movements. Blood results revealed raised inflammatory markers, and computed tomography imaging suggested small bowel obstruction due to an incarcerated left inguinal hernia.

Hernia repairs are among the most common surgical procedures performed by general surgeons annually in the United States, defined as the abnormal protrusion of tissue and/or organs through an anatomical defect in the surrounding wall at various locations in the human body. While some hernias can remain asymptomatic and seemingly harmless, some may lead to intestinal obstruction, ischemic bowel from strangulation of blood supply, or septic shock if not diagnosed and addressed within a short period of time. This case report is about an elderly woman who presented with a Richter's.

Background: Triple combined hernias are rare surgical presentations where three different tissues protrude through abdominal wall weaknesses. Amyand's hernia involves appendix entrapment within an inguinal hernia, while Richter's hernia entraps bowel circumference in the sac. The combination of sliding bladder hernia, Amyand's, and Richter's hernia has not been documented in medical literature, making preoperative diagnosis challenging.

Introduction: Richter's hernia is a relatively uncommon type of hernia that can lead to severe clinical consequences if left unaddressed. The definitive treatment involves the reduction and repair of the hernia defect, with various surgical approaches available, including open transabdominal, inguinal, obturator, and laparoscopic techniques, depending on the size of the defect and the viability of the involved bowel.
Case Presentation: A 29-year-old female patient presented with Richter's hernia, a rare type of hernia, and underwent surgical intervention to release the incarcerated bowel loop and resect the necrotic segment.

Introduction: Creation of colostomy is still a commonly performed procedure in emergency settings, when intestinal anastomosis cannot be performed safely. Reversing a stoma has been linked with high rates of morbidity and also mortality.
Aim: The primary goal of the study was to identify the risk of postoperative complications in patients undergoing colostomy liquidation.
