Abstract
Bochdalek’s hernia, a congenital posterolateral hernia of the diaphragm, usually manifests in the neonatal period and occasionally in childhood. Symptomatic Bochdalek’s hernias are uncommon in adults.Patients are initially investigated and treated for other diseases, therefore diagnosis is purely incidental. We present 4 cases of Bochdalek’s hernias that presented in our hospital in between 2001 and 2006 .All patients were initially managed for other conditions and discovery of the hernias was incidental. In this article we aim to highlight the diagnosis and successful management of these 4 cases.
