Article Synopsis
  • Diaphragmatic hernias (DH) are defects in the diaphragm allowing abdominal contents into the thoracic cavity, which can be either congenital (like Bochdalek hernia) or acquired, often due to trauma.
  • A 69-year-old female experienced acute abdominal pain and was found to have a right posterolateral DH containing part of her colon, leading to an urgent surgical intervention.
