Diaphragmatic eventration is an uncommon condition, usually discovered incidentally in asymptomatic patients. Even in symptomatic patients, the diagnosis can be challenging and should be considered among the differential diagnoses of diaphragmatic hernia. The correct diagnosis can often only be made in surgery. We describe the case of a 31-year-old patient with diaphragmatic eventration that was misdiagnosed as a recurrent congenital diaphragmatic hernia and review the corresponding literature.
膈膨出是一种罕见的病症,通常在无症状患者中偶然发现。即使在有症状的患者中,诊断也可能具有挑战性,并且应在膈疝的鉴别诊断中予以考虑。正确的诊断通常只能在手术中做出。我们描述了一名31岁膈膨出患者被误诊为复发性先天性膈疝的病例,并回顾了相关文献。
