We report the case of an adult patient recently diagnosed with cirrhosis. The ultrasound evaluation described a multinodular inhomogeneous liver, requiring a magnetic resonance imaging scan for further characterization. The performed magnetic resonance imaging examination confirmed the diagnosis of cirrhosis associated with portal hypertension and detected a vascular left transdiaphragmatic hernia. Although various types of diaphragmatic hernias have been described - congenital or acquired - to the best of our knowledge, this type of pathology has never been reported.
我们报告了一例最近被诊断为肝硬化的成年患者。超声评估描述了一个多结节不均匀的肝脏，需要进行磁共振成像扫描以进一步进行特征描述。进行的磁共振成像检查证实了肝硬化合并门静脉高压的诊断，并检测到血管性左侧横膈疝。尽管已经描述了各种类型的横膈疝 - 先天性或后天性 - 据我们所知，这种类型的病理从未被报道过。
