Abstract

Simultaneous occurrence of traumatic abdominal wall hernia (TAWH) and traumatic diaphragmatic hernia (TDH) is uncommon. Our report documents the rare delayed presentation of simultaneous occurrence of TAWH and TDH in a patient who sustained a bicycle handlebar injury as a consequence of the bicycle he was riding colliding with a motorbike in a road-traffic accident. Excellent outcome could be achieved in this patient with surgical repair without requiring the use of a mesh.
