Internal hernias are infrequent, yet serious, medical conditions with potentially severe consequences. An internal hernia resulting from an Appendices epiploicae (AE) ring is an especially rare cause, with a mere nine documented instances worldwide.
This report presents the case of a 58-year-old male who suffered from an internal hernia originating from an AE ring. The condition led to a gangrenous small bowel, which was treated by laparotomy and resection of the affected segment, followed by primary anastomosis. The post-operative recovery was favorable.
Internal hernias, although rare, warrant immediate attention and early intervention to preclude detrimental outcomes, as illustrated in this particular case.
内疝虽不常见，但却是严重的医学病症，可能导致严重后果。由网膜囊疝（AE）环引起的内疝是一种极为罕见的病因，全球仅有9例记录在案。
本报告介绍了一名58岁男性患者，他患有源自AE环的内疝。该病症导致小肠坏疽，通过剖腹手术和切除受影响节段进行治疗，随后进行一期吻合术。术后恢复良好。
内疝虽罕见，但需立即关注并尽早干预，以避免不良后果，本病例即说明了这一点。
