Obturator hernias (OHs) are rare pelvic hernias that involve the protrusion of intraperitoneal or extraperitoneal organs or tissues through the obturator foramen. Risk factors for OH patients include female gender, chronic disease, age, malnourishment, history of multiple pregnancies, anatomical enlargement of obturator foramen, increased intraabdominal pressure, and defective collagen metabolism. Since OHs have the highest mortality rate of all abdominal hernias, prompt diagnosis and treatment are critical. Prior research has demonstrated an increased likelihood of bilateral OHs relative to unilateral. We present the case of a 79-year-old female who presented with an obstructed OH six months after an operation for an OH on the contralateral side. Due to the potential morbidity and mortality associated with OHs and delay in discovery, we suggest evaluation and treatment of the contralateral side in patients who present with unilateral OHs.
