DOMINGUEZ GONZALEZ, Erian Jesús et al. Diaphragmatic traumatic hernia in the little boy. Rev Cubana Cir [online]. 2015, vol.54, n.3, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-2945.

Traumatic diaphragmatic hernia is a rare illness at pediatric ages. The objective of this paper was to report a case of diaphragmatic hernia secondary to closed thoracoabdominal trauma. This patient is a 12 years-old boy admitted to the pediatric surgery service of Santiago de Cuba province because of an accident at home (a brick wall fell down upon his body) that caused him cranial, thoracic and lumbar traumas. The radiological studies confirmed the diagnosis of traumatic diaphragmatic hernia on the left side. During the surgical act, there was observed an almost 15cm left diaphragm defect with hernias in stomach, spleen and colon. Reduction and phrenorraphy were performed using mattress sewing stitch type, polyester 0 plus left low minimal pleurostomy. The progression of the patient was satisfactory and was discharged from hospital ten days after surgery to be followed up in the outpatient service for 6 months until his complete recovery.
