Abstract
Спонтанний розрив гемідіафрагми у випадках вродженої діафрагмальної евентрації зустрічається вкрай рідко, у літературі повідомляють про унікальні випадки.In this context, the authors present the case of an 8-year-old child who was hospitalized in the coloproctology service for abdominal pain, lack of stool for more than 7 days, pronounced abdominal distension. The child suffers from Down's disease. In 2017, he was occasionally diagnosed with right diaphragmatic eventration and underwent surgical correction by thoracic approach. After a thorough evaluation, with signs suggestive of diaphragmatic hernia on the right, the child underwent surgery, intraoperatively the rupture of the right hemidiaphragm was found with intrathoracic ascension of the malrotated intestinal loops, transverse colon and omentum. The repair of the diaphragmatic eventration complicated by rupture was used using the “overcoat” folding procedure, on the suture line being carefully applied a collagen foil covered with components of the fibrin adhesive. The postoperative period passed without complications.Conclusion. Spontaneous rupture of the diaphragm is a rare complication in children with diaphragmatic eventration, especially on the right side, in this case obstruction of the malformative colon ascended intrathoracically with progressive dilation of the intestinal loops being responsible for distension with gradual thinning of the hemidiaphragm sac resulting malformation in diaphragmatic rupture with herniation and progressive obliteration of the pleural space. The case of rupture of the diaphragmatic eventration associated with megadolicocolon confirms that the respiratory symptoms characteristic of this clinical situation may be overshadowed by the predominance of signs of intestinal obstruction, without leading to sudden progressive clinical deterioration, which proved to be a misleading moment in diagnosis. certainty of this serious complication rarity.
