Abstract
Diaphragmatic injuries may result from blunt or penetrating injuries. The symptomatology is usually overlaid by symptoms of associated abdominal or thoracic injuries or by symptoms of other systems injuries in polytraumas.
Multidetector computer tomography (MDTC) faciliates the improvement of preoperative diagnostics in blunt injuries. The retrospective study included analysis of a study group of subjects with blunt and penetrating diaphragmatic injuries.
