[Strangulated postoperative diaphragmatic hernia]. / Redkoe nablyudenie ushchemlennoi posleoperatsionnoi diafragmal'noi gryzhi.

We present a rare case of postoperative diaphragmatic hernia in a patient with colon infringement 3 years after surgery for cardioesophageal cancer accompanied by extensive diaphragmotomy. The diagnosis of diaphragmatic hernia with colon infringement was based on a combination of anamnestic, clinical and radiological data, as well as results of diagnostic pleural puncture. This clinical case is of interest due to small incidence of disease and difficult interpretation of clinical and diagnostic data.
