Laparoscopic Repair of Bochdalek Hernia Into Contralateral Thoracic Cavity
Introduction: Bochdalek hernias in adults rarely become symptomatic. However, once the abdominal organs become incarcerated in Bochdalek hernia, surgery is required to reduce them from the thoracic cavity. Case Description: We present the case of a 71-year-old woman with continuous chest discomfort and spontaneous epigastralgia. Computed tomography demonstrated that the colon and omentum were h...
متن کاملLaparoscopic repair of a Bochdalek hernia in an adult woman
Bochdalek hernia (BH) is a congenital defect of the diaphragm that usually presents in the neonatal period with life threatening cardiorespiratory distress. It is rare for BH to remain silent until adulthood. A 51-year-old woman presented with progressive dyspnea and abdominal symptoms, but without a history of trauma. The diagnosis of BH was made based on chest X-ray and CT. The hernia was rep...

A 63 year old female underwent an uncomplicated total extraperitoneal repair of a right direct inguinal hernia. One week later she presented with a strangulated left femoral hernia. We believe the dissection of the extraperitoneal space caused bleeding which tracked down through the femoral canal resulting in a femoral hernia. To date there are no reports of such a complication following total ...
متن کاملBochdalek hernia presenting with initial local fat infiltration of the thoracic cavity in a leukemic child
Local fat infiltration of the thoracic cavity is a rare initial presentation of Bochdalek hernia. We report a case of Bochdalek hernia in a child with leukemia that demonstrated initial local fat infiltration of the thoracic cavity on computed tomography scan and progressed to an obvious diaphragmatic hernia on subsequent follow-up. We suggest that initial local fat infiltration of the thoracic...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Repair of Diaphragmatic Defects: Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (of Bochdalek) and Eventration
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is ideally suited to diagnosis and treatment of all forms of diaphragmatic defects. Obviously, the laparoscope affords accurate direct imaging of defects that have classically eluded accurate description by radiological techniques, and does so with minimal morbidity. But laparoscopy also allows repair of these defects with increased precision and vastly decrease...
