CRUZ CANTU, Lilia Melissa; LEZAMA DE LUNA, Jorge Favio e SAMANO ROBLES, Carlos Manuel. Bochdalek hernia complicated with gastric perforation in an adult patient. A case report. Cir. gen [online]. 2016, vol.38, n.2, pp.88-91. Epub 31-Mar-2020. ISSN 1405-0099.
Bochdalek hernia is a congenital defect in the diaphragm frequently diagnosed in the neonatal period. Surgical treatment should be carried out even if the patient is asymptomatic because the risk of strangulation exists. We report the case of a 43-year-old female patient with a diagnosis of Bochdalek hernia complicated with gastric perforation, as well as its satisfactory surgical resolution through a subcostal abdominal approach, primary closure of the gastric perforation and catheterization with left thoracic tube.
