| Summary: | Bochdalek hernia (HB) is a congenital defect of the diaphragm, which in the neonatal period can lead to a lifethreatening cardio-respiratory distress syndrome. Bochdalek hernias rarely unnoticed until adulthood. When diagnosing HB, a radical method of treatment is surgery, which avoids complications such as perforation and necrosis of migrated organs from the abdominal cavity. To date, standard approaches for performing surgical intervention have not been defined. Reconstruction of the diaphragm is possible from both the abdominal and thoracic cavities. This paper presents a clinical case of thoracoscopic reconstruction of giant diaphragmatic HB in the adult. |
