JONES, A L C e THIRSK, I. Misdiagnosis of diaphragmatic rupture in a trauma setting. S. Afr. j. surg. [online]. 2012, vol.50, n.3, pp.93-94. ISSN 2078-5151.
Distinguishing diaphragmatic eventration from rupture in the trauma setting can be a considerable challenge.

A review of the literature discusses the use of imaging modalities and subsequent surgical diagnostic procedures in the face of uncertainty.
