Abstract
Obturator hernia is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction, and bilate ral obturator hernias are even rarer. Early diagnosis can decrease the morbidity and mortality associated with these lesions. We present the case of a patient with bilateral obturator hernias, discuss the radio graphic findings, and briefly review the literature.
