A Six-year-old thoroughbred racehorse underwent surgery for treatment of a direct and indirect inguinal hernia. A 30 cm segment of severely compromised jejunum was incarcerated through the inguinal ring, which necessitated its resection and jejunojejunal anastomosis via a standard ventral midline celiotomy. The direct hernial orificew as an acquired rent through the peritoneum and transverse fascia 5 cm lateral to the vaginal ring. A 50 cm non-devitalized segment of herniated jejunum was reduced without complication via the midline celiotomy. The prognosis after the surgery was satisfactory and the horse went back to the race 15 weeks after the surgery.
