    Author: Rishi MT, Rishi A, Palesty A.
    Journal: Updates Surg; 2016 Dec; 68(4):419-420. PubMed ID: 27263101.
    Abstract:
    Penetrating trauma to the abdomen can be a potential diagnostic dilemma for the trauma surgeon, and a formal exploratory laparotomy may result in the detection of occult injuries. We report a very unusual case of penetrating trauma to the abdomen resulting in pericardio-diagphragmatic rupture. We have also highlighted the technical aspects of clinical care in this specific scenario.
