Abstract

The presentation of a traumatic hernia of the diaphragm can be within minutes or hours, even after days, months or years following the precipitating trauma. A 34-year-old man presented with some symptoms 4 years after having a stab wound to his left thoraco-abdominal region and was diagnosed as having delayed presentation of traumatic hernia of the diaphragm. Most important point in the diagnosis of a such condition is the consideration of a possibility in the differantial diagnosis. The diagnosis is often difficult in the late phase since the history of trauma can easily be underestimated.

Özet

Travmatik diyafragma hernisi, travmadan dakikalar ya da saatler sonra, bazen de günler, aylar hatta yıllar sonra semptomlara yol açmakta ve tanı almaktadır. Otuz dört yaşındaki erkek hastada, sol torako-abdominal bölgenin bıçaklanmasından 4 yıl sonra semptomlar başlamış ve travmatik diyafragma hernisi saptanmıştır. Diyafragma rüptürünün erken tanısında en önemli nokta, künt ya da penetran travmalı hastalarda bu olasılığın akla getirilmesidir. Gecikmiş dönemde, travma hikayesi kolayca gözden kaçabileceği için tanı zorlaşmaktadır.
