Complicated diaphragmatic hernia with hollow viscus rupture in thoracic cavity Introduction: Diaphragmatic hernias (DH) are a rare condition in adult patients. Most of the cases are asymptomatic findings in imaging studies. Rarely do they present as complicated cases. Clinical cases: We report two clinical cases of complicated DH, one of Bochdalek and another with history of a penetrating thoracic trauma two years before, both with hollow viscus rupture in the thoracic cavity.
