Traumatic diaphragmatic hernia (TDH) is uncommon and presents a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Herein, we present the case of a 43-year-old patient with left-sided TDH and colonic obstruction due to herniation of the splenic flexura of the colon, which was diagnosed three years after the initial blunt trauma. A subtotal colectomy and primary ileocolic anastomosis were performed and the diaphragmatic defect was repaired. TDH should be suspected in patients with an acute colonic obstruction, particularly if the patient has a history of trauma
Travmatik diafragma hernileri nadirdir, tanı ve tedavisinde bir takım güçlükler vardır. Bu yazıda künt travmadan üç yıl sonra tanı konulan ve splenik fleksuranın herniasyonu edeniyle kolon obstruksiyonu gelișen sol diafragma hernili 43 yașındaki hastamızı sunduk. Hastamıza subtotal kolektomi ve primer iliokolik anastomoz yapıldı ve diafragmatik defekt tamir edildi. Akut kolon obstrüksiyonu gelișen hastalarda travma öyküsü varsa diafragma hernisinden șüphelenilmelidir.
