The most common causes of small bowel obstruction are hernias and adhesive disease. Other causes include malignancy, inflammation, infection, and Meckel diverticulum with an omphalomesenteric ligament. This article describes a patient who presented to the ED with abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. A CT scan revealed dilated loops of bowel with an adjacent air-filled structure, possibly related to an internal hernia. Meckel diverticulum was discovered on diagnostic laparoscopy and a mesodiverticular band was lysed; the diverticulum was left in situ. The patient did well without further invention needed.
