Abstract

Sclerosing Encapsulating Peritonotis ( SEP) or Abdominal Cocoon is a rare condition characterized by total or partial encasement of the small bowel by a fibrocollagenous cocoon like sac. It was first described and named by Foo et al in 1978. Here we present a case of SEP or cocoon in a young girl with typical radiological and per operative finding.
