Computed tomography (CT) was used to evaluate mass effect on the greater curvature of the stomach in two children with histories of intermittent, recurrent vomiting. The paraduodenal herniae were identified on CT in both of these patients as small bowel interposed between the stomach and the body of the pancreas.
