Abstract EN
Diaphragmatic ruptures are the result of severe blunt trauma or penetrating trauma.
Motor vehicle crashes are a common mechanism associated with blunt diaphragmatic rupture (BDR).
Incorporating diagnostic tools and laparotomy assist in the diagnosis and treatment of BDR.
However, diagnosing BDR can be a challenge for practitioners.
Early diagnosis and treatment improve the patient's outcomes.
This paper details the events of a patient received in a level I trauma unit.
