Abstract
The computed tomographic (CT) findings of a right and left paraduodenal hernia are described. In the right paraduodenal hernia the major findings consist of encapsulation of small bowel loops in the right mid-abdomen with looping of arterial and venous jejunal branches behind the superior mesenteric artery. The findings of the left paraduodenal hernia are less specific and involve encapsulation of bowel loops at or above the level of the ligament of Treitz with intermittent dilatation.Keywords
