[Diaphragmatic rupture: case report of a rare complication of labor].

A diaphragmatic rupture associated with labor is a rare complication of pregnancy with high fetal and maternal mortality. Due to non-specific symptoms and rareness of the disease the diagnosis can be challenging. We present a case of a healthy 26-year old woman with one previous childbirth who presented upper abdominal pain, tachycardia and dyspnea during labor.
