Abstract
OpenAlex · English
Diaphragm hernia is still a severe problem in cats exposed to trauma. This study aimed to contribute to clinical practice and colleagues by notifying clinical observations on traumatic diaphragm rupture in cats and factors effective on survival. In this study, 24 cats with traumatic diaphragm hernia were presented. Contrast radiography has provided great convenience in diagnosing suspicious cases. 20 out of 24 cats (83%) remained alive, but four died. The localization of the diaphragm of these cats in 3 cats was in the left half, which was relatively high (50%) in the left tears. In the defects on the right, the herniated organs were the liver, small intestine, and omentum, while the stomach, small intestine, and spleen in the defects on the left. As a result, survival in 83% is important, and this is a good prognosis for aperture hernia. Despite many negative stress factors, good operation management and postoperative maintenance can increase survival.
