Abstract

Missing the diaphragmatic injury on first admission is often associated with late complications. A 38 year-old male patient is presented here as a case of missed diaphragmatic injury due to gunshot injury resulted with fecal peritonitis. Celiotomy revealed a distended appendix perforation due to herniated left colon obstruction through the left pleural cavity. Left colon and stomach were reduced to peritoneal cavity and diaphragm was repaired with interrupted polypropylene sutures. After being sure about the viability of the colon and stomach, appendectomy with cecal exteriorization was performed. Postoperative period was uneventful. The patient was discharged on the 10th postoperative day. A thorough inspection of the diaphragm is essential in thoraco-abdominal trauma. Repair of the diaphragmatic defects should invariably carried out to avoid life-threatening complications.

Özet

Diyafragma yaralanmalarına ilk başvuruda tanı konulamaması sıklıkla geç komplikasyonlara neden olur. Burada ateşli silah yaralanmasına bağlı atlanmış diyafragma yaralanmasının neden olduğu fekal peritonitli 38 yaşındaki erkek hasta sunulmaktadır. Laparotomi sırasında sol plöral boşluğa fıtıklaşmış sol kolon obstrüksiyonuna ikincil diyastatik apendiks perforasyonu saptandı. Fıtık defekti genişletilerek, mide ve sol kolon karına doğru redükte edildi ve diyafragmatik fıtık polipropilen devamlı dikişlerle tamir edildi. Mide ve kolonun canlılığından emin olduktan sonra, apandektomiyi takiben çekal eksteriorizasyon uygulandı. Ameliyat sonrası dönemde herhangi bir komplikasyonla karşılaşılmadı ve hasta ameliyat sonrası 10. günde taburcu edildi. Torako-abdominal travmalarda diyafragmanın tümüyle gözden geçirilmesi gereklidir. Yaşamı tehdit edici komplikasyonları önlemek amacıyla tüm diyafragma yaralanmaları onarılmalıdır.
