Surgical repair is suggested for patients with significant functional obstruction. However, there is little literature to suggest the management of asymptomatic patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CASE PRESENTATION:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Case 1 patient is a 29 year-old Indonesian man and case 2 patient is a 41 year-old Malay man.
