Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) findings. The mesentery converges at the right side of the uterus (arrowhead). The uterus is deviated to the left. There is a spheroidal area of poor enhancement (arrow). Ut: uterus.

However, there was a spheroidal area of poor enhancement adjacent to the distended small intestines, assuming it was the right ovary or ascites (Figure 1).
Surgical findings (laparoscopy). Within the pelvis, a viable ileal loop (arrow) and a necrotic organ are shown, suspecting it as a result of ischemia (arrowhead).

Laparoscopic exploration revealed a viable ileal loop and an organ suspected to be ischemic (Figure 2).
Surgical findings (laparotomy). The ileal loop (white arrow) and right fallopian tube (white arrowhead) are incarcerated, and the hernial orifice is a defect in the right broad ligament (black arrow).

Laparotomy showed that incarceration was caused by herniation through the right broad ligament of the uterus in a posterior-to-anterior direction (Figure 3).
