J Surg Case Rep. 2022 Apr 18;2022(4):rjac154. doi: 10.1093/jscr/rjac154. PMID: 35444792; PMCID: PMC9015773. | Journal: | Journal of surgical case reports | Abstract: | Accidental fall was the 11th leading cause of death in Australia in 2020. It is essential to promptly diagnose traumatic diaphragmatic injury as a complication of thoracoabdominal blunt trauma and make a decision about an urgent surgical intervention, especially if there is a suspected herniation of internal organs into the thoracic cavity. This case report describes the clinical, intraoperative and computed tomography findings of traumatic diaphragmatic injury and ruptured gastrothorax. | Description: | Cairns & Hinterland Hospital and Health Service (CHHHS) affiliated authors: Andriy Hordiychuk, Timothy Elston | DOI: | 10.1093/jscr/rjac154 | Type: | Article |
