A movement in which the plantar surface of the foot rotates away from the mid-line of the body. Another way to describe this movement is to say that the plantar surface (sole) of the foot turns laterally, i.e. turns outwards. Eversion of the soles of the feet so that they turn outwards to face away from each other.
A small-bowel obstruction (SBO) is caused by a variety of pathologic processes. The leading cause of SBO in industrialized countries is postoperative adhesions (60%), followed by malignancy, Crohn disease, and hernias.
In this situation, there can be significant pain and nausea and vomiting, signaling the possible development of a bowel obstruction. Fever may be associated with strangulated, dead bowel. A Richter's hernia causes only a part of the bowel wall to become trapped stuck in the hernia. It won't necessarily cause an obstruction since the passageway of the intestine still allows bowel contents to pass, but that portion of the bowel wall that is trapped can strangulate and die.
