A.info@eco-vector.comSurgical department (head E. A. Kolodub) Merefa hospital in Kharkiv district (head doctor A. S. Kramarenko)130719383477417420801202108012021Copyright © 2021, Kolodub E.A.2021<p>Cases of spontaneous rupture of the small intestine with a hernia are extremely rare. So, in 1929, Slonim collected in the literature only 23 cases of spontaneous rupture of the small intestine from the tension of the abdominal press. In 1932, a similar case is given by Garber, and in 1936, 4 more cases are described by Pozanov. Thus, in the literature available to us, 28 cases of spontaneous rupture in persons with hernia have been published. We had a case to observe a spontaneous rupture of the small intestine in the patient in the presence of a bilateral inguinal hernia.</p>Kazan Medical archiveКазанский медицинский архив
