摘要
Bochdalek hernia, a type of congenital diaphragmatic hernia usually presents in the immediate neonatal period with respiratory distress. Presentation in an adult is rare and asymptomatic. We report one such case of Bochdalek hernia, in a 35 year old male, who presented only with mild chest discomfort on left side. Radiological investigations were suggestive of a huge left side Bochdalek hernia with stomach and intestines in the left thorax. This case emphasizes the rarity of presentation of Bochdalek hernia in adults and the importance of high clinical suspicion and the role of imaging and surgery in the accurate diagnosis of this abnormality.
