[Intrathoracic rupture of herniated stomach. Description of a case].
The authors describe a case of intrathoracic migration of the stomach consequent upon diaphragmatic laceration. Long after the traumatic event, intrathoracic stomach perforation occurred; it probably was due to stomach wall ischemia, as result of vascular compression. The lesion was diagnosed with conventional X-ray thoracic films and opacified stomach.
