Sumario:Congenital transmesocolic hernia of the transverse colon is a very rare type of internal hernia. In addition, intestinal malrotation is very rare in adults. Most of these patients do not have clear clinical manifestations. Incidence of congenital transmesocolic hernia of the transverse colon along with malrotation is an unusual phenomenon in medical literature and clinical practice. Here, we report a unique case of a 25-year-old woman diagnosed with transmesocolic hernia of the transverse colon and malrotation of the small intestine, without any history of trauma or previous surgery. The patient underwent surgery, where the hernia orifice was closed and Ladd’s procedure was performed.
