We reported a fourty two days old, previously healthy boy
following spontaneous perforation of the descending
and sigmoid colon. The patient presented with progressive
abdominal distention and a swollen scrotum that lead to
the suspicion of strangulated inguinal hernia. Next plain
abdominal radiographs showed free intraperitoneal gas and
final diagnosis was made by exploratory laparatomy, that
revealed perforation in the descending and sigmoid colon.
