Abstract

A 29-year-old male marine presented with acute dyspnea and abdominal discomfort. The complaints were caused by a diaphragmatic rupture with an intrathoracic stomach and spleen probably due to an explosion during a military mission a year earlier. Subsequent operative intervention was initiated.
