Diaphragmatic rupture occurs in 0.8% to 3.6% of patients after blunt or penetrating thoracoabdominal trauma, and the preoperative diagnosis is difficult. The diagnosis of traumatic diaphragmatic rupture may be made on initial presentation or at any time later. Right-sided diaphragmatic rupture is rare and occurs in approximately 5% to 20% of all diaphragmatic disruptions. The incidence of herniation of the intra-abdominal organs into the pleural cavity is also low, observed in only about 19% of right-sided diaphragmatic ruptures. We present a case of right-sided traumatic rupture of the diaphragm diagnosed 15 years after the initial blunt trauma. A 22-year-old male patient fell 15 years before and was symptom-free since then. He was referred to our hospital with the signs of herniation of the right diaphragm, which was manifested in the chest x-rays. The definite diagnosis was made through thoracoabdominal computed tomography. The diaphragmatic rupture was repaired via abdominal approach.
