Supravesical hernias are very rarely seen and reported as a possible cause of small bowel obstruction. The proper diagnosis of which is usually made intra-operatively as the preliminary diagnosis despite the availability of advanced radiological investigations which are not very helpful. We report the case of a patient without previous abdominal surgery with an acute abdominal obstruction in which laparotomy exploration revealed a strangulatedinternalsupravesicalhernia. The defect was repaired after reducing the bowel and the patient made an uneventful recovery.
