Ventral wall hernia containing a short segment of the transverse colon with transition point present where colon enters the hernia sac. The upstream colon is abnormally dilated to 9.2 cm. Downstream colon is completely decompressed. Findings worrisome for high-grade colonic obstruction. There is some fluid in the hernia sac, also raising concern for strangulation. 2.
