Severe Liver Trauma and Diaphragmatic Rupture in a Bull Running Event.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Bull gore injuries (cornadas) are the most frequent injuries caused by bulls during bull-related events. Blunt trauma caused by being struck by the bull’s horns and/or head (known as varetazos) usually causes less serious injuries. We present the case of a patient who received blunt trauma from a bull horn, that caused diaphragm rupture and right hepatic avulsion requiring right hepatectomy, vena cava repair and diaphragm suture.

متن کاملMissed diagnosis of a large, right-sided diaphragmatic rupture with herniated liver and concomitant liver laceration after blunt trauma: consequences for delayed surgical repair
Diaphragmatic injuries are relatively rare and as such frequently missed, particularly if they occur as a rare event on the right-sided dome. Even if detected in the early phase, the concomitant injury of other organs may delay the time to repair. The delay in surgical correction may aggravate additional adherences between thoracic and abdominal organs and cause the diaphragmatic muscle to retr...
