Unexpected diagnosis: a case of incidental congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
Congenital diaphragmatic hernias (CHD) are rare anomalies resulting from the failure of the diaphragm to form. Bochdalek hernias are characterized by posterolateral displacement of abdominal organs into the chest. The condition's clinical presentation is variable and commonly presents with acute respiratory distress after birth. Timely recognition and management are crucial due to the associated morbidity and mortality rates. In the present case, a diaphragmatic hernia was discovered incidentally in a 1-year-old patient following an appendectomy. This case highlights the diverse clinical presentations and diagnostic challenges of Bochdalek hernias, reinforcing the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration for effective patient care.
