Özet

Late-onset congenital diaphragmatic hernias that give symptoms beyond the neonatal period are rare and are difficult to diagnose. The diagnosis is usually made in case of complications such as intestinal obstruction, strangulation, and perforation, which further necessitate immediate surgical repair. The case of a 5-year-old child presenting with acute respiratory distress with gastric strangulation and perforation secondary to Bochdalek hernia is reported here. Although presentation in the latter ages is less common, congenital diaphragmatic hernia should be included in the differential diagnosis of respiratory distress in children. Symptoms and diagnostic tools should truly be interpreted. Gastrointestinal complications must urgently be recognized, and early surgical intervention must be performed.
