What Is a Traumatic Diaphragmatic Defect and Rupture in the Body Related to a Hernia?
A traumatic diaphragmatic defect related to a hernia is when there is a tear in the diaphragm, and it causes a herniation or hernia of the abdominal structure. When this happens, the hernia can start ripping the diaphragm, when contents of the abdomen start to spill into the diaphragm.1 If the diaphragm experiences a rip or a tear, then there may have been other trauma to the body, such as a major type of trauma that sends the person to the hospital for that treatment.
Once it is determined that you need to repair the diaphragm, then there may be the suggestion that it will be repaired with a hernia mesh product. If the tear in the diaphragm is large, then it is highly likely that a mesh product will be used to close the defect, to offer tension-free repairing of the injured area of the diaphragm in those cases.
