Abstract

A supravesical hernia (SH) is a rare abdominal wall hernia that develops at the supravesical fossa. Their clinical manifestation is often an intestinal obstruction. Their diagnosis is difficult but computed tomography (CT) appearance and familiarity with the anatomy of the supravesical fossa may allow the preoperative diagnosis.
