摘要
A congenital diaphragmatic hernia (Bochdalek's hernia) rarely presents in adulthood. We present the case of a 21-year-old woman with thrombocytopenia secondary to hypersplenism due to left-sided (sinistral) portal hypertension. This portal hypertension was caused by strangulation of the spleen within a Bochdalek's hernia. Subacute gastric volvulus compounded by portal hypertensive gastropathy resulted in her presentation with acute haematemesis. Congenital diaphragmatic hernias may present in the adult. Their presentation is variable, and they may produce life-threatening complications.
