Traumatic Right Diaphragmatic Rupture Combined with Avulsion of the Right Kidney and Herniation of the Liver into the Thorax
نویسندگان
چکیده
Right-sided diaphragmatic rupture is less common and more difficult to diagnose than left-sided lesion. It is rarely combined with the herniation of the abdominal organs into the thorax. High level of suspicion is the key to early diagnosis, and a delay in diagnosis is implicated with a considerable risk of mortality and morbidity. We experienced a case of right-sided diaphragmatic rupture combined with complete avulsion of the right kidney and herniation of the liver into the thoracic cavity.

Diaphragmatic rupture is a potentially life-threatening clinical situation. It occurs as a result of high-velocity blunt or penetrating injury to the abdomen and thorax. Acute traumatic rupture of the diaphragm may go undetected, and there is often a delay between the injury and diagnosis.

متن کاملDelayed diagnosis of a right-sided traumatic diaphragmatic rupture
Right-sided traumatic diaphragmatic rupture in childhood is a very rare injury. Diaphragmatic rupture often manifests itself later, after an organ progressively herniates into the pleural cavity. When the patient is tubed, the ventilation pressure does not allow herniation of an organ, which occurs when the patient is ex-tubed. We present a patient with a delayed diagnose of right sided diaphra...
