Abstract

<p>A 66-year-old woman presented to the emergency department of our hospital for evaluation of abdominal and right leg pain and was hospitalized for follow-up. Abdominal computed tomography performed the following day revealed an incarcerated right obturator hernia, and she was referred to our department for further management. The patient had severe kyphosis secondary to a history of spinal tuberculosis, and the chest and pubis were close to each other. We performed ultrasonography guided manual reduction, followed by elective surgery using an inguinal approach. We discuss our findings in this case report, together with a literature review.</p>
