  • Title: Adult right-sided Bochdalek hernia facilitated by coexistent hepatic hypoplasia.
    Author: Zenda T, Kaizaki C, Mori Y, Miyamoto S, Horichi Y, Nakashima A.
    Journal: Abdom Imaging; 2000; 25(4):394-6. PubMed ID: 10926192.
    Abstract:
    An adult case of right-sided Bochdalek hernia complicating intrathoracic intestinal strangulation is presented. Formation of this rare right-sided diaphragmatic hernia was facilitated by coexistent hypoplasia of the medial segment of left hepatic lobe. Computed tomography showed characteristic findings such as dilated small intestine with convergence of mesenteric folds in the thorax, which was highly diagnostic of intestinal strangulation due to diaphragmatic hernia.
