A diaphragmatic hernia in a traumatic patient simulating a hemorrhage: A case report

A traumatic diaphragmatic rupture occurs in approximately 5 % of all trauma cases, making diagnosis difficult. Images can be used for most diagnoses; however, some can be detected intraoperatively.

description A traumatic diaphragmatic rupture occurs in approximately 5 % of all trauma cases, making diagnosis difficult. Images can be used for most diagnoses; however, some can be detected intraoperatively. Based on its presentation, mechanism, side, diagnostic modality, and surgical approach, the diaphragmatic hernia can be discussed from several perspectives. In this report, we present the case of a 39-year-old female who suffered a rupture of her right diaphragm following a motor vehicle accident. Her symptoms mimic those of hemorrhage. A repair was performed through an abdominal approach, and the patient was discharged from the hospital without complications.
