A 2-year-old male mixed-breed dog was examined after being hit by a car, and exploratory celiotomy revealed jejunal incarceration through an omental tear. The affected intestinal segment was distended and black, and had small serosal tears. Clinical signs of disease and hematologic, serum biochemical findings during surgery were consistent with concurrent diagnosis of sepsis. The dog responded to supportive treatment and resection of the affected intestinal segment by jejunal end-to-end anastomosis.
