Abstract
Bochdalek hernia is one of the most common types of diaphragmatic hernia. It appears frequently in infants but rarely in adults. We report a case of a 31 year-old male patient with a left-sided congenital posterolateral diaphragmatic hernia with progressive dyspnea and abdominal symptom due to incarceration of the colon and epiploon, but without a history of trauma.
