Abstract Treves’ field pouch hernia (TFPH) is an unusual type of congenital internal hernia. Although eight cases of TFPH have been
reported in the English literature, they were seldom diagnosed preoperatively with high mortality rates. We describe a 12-year-old
girl with TFPH diagnosed as an internal hernia on computed tomography and confirmed laparoscopically, and review the literature.
