  • Title: Delayed presentation of gastrothorax masquerading as pneumothorax.
    Author: How C, Tee A, Quah J.
    Journal: Prim Care Respir J; 2007 Feb; 16(1):54-6. PubMed ID: 17097345.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of traumatic diaphragmatic rupture (TDR) following an unusual blunt trauma. The history and initial chest radiograph prompted an insertion of a nasogastric tube which confirmed our diagnosis and decompressed the intra-thoracic gastric contents. We discuss briefly the diagnostic approach to the clinical management of TDR.
