e/Internal hernia

Information
has gloss	eng: Internal hernias occur when there is an opening in the bowel mesentery. If a loop of bowel passes through the mesenteric defect, that loop is at risk for becoming the lead point of a small bowel obstruction. Mesenteric defects commonly occur in trauma, such as gunshot wounds to the abdomen, and mesenteric defects are intentionally created in the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass procedure. In trauma victims, the defect is usually closed, sometimes with resection of the associated bowel, which may have lost its blood supply.
lexicalization	eng: Internal hernia
instance of	(noun) rupture in smooth muscle tissue through which a bodily structure protrudes herniation, hernia
