Missed diagnosis of a large, right-sided diaphragmatic rupture with herniated liver and concomitant liver laceration after blunt trauma: consequences for delayed surgical repair

Abstract
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 retract, causing a larger tissue defect that may prevent primary suture repair. This should be taken into consideration when choosing access to repair (thoracic, abdominal or both cavities), mode (open or laparoscopic) and type of repair (primary suture or use of mesh material to close the defect). Here we present a case of delayed right-sided, blunt diaphragmatic injury with herniation of liver. Repair was performed in a delayed manner with an initial laparoscopic exploration converted to open abdominal repair with closing of defect with Gore-tex mesh material.
