ABSTRACT

Mujer de 64 años, del medio rural, referida por imagen radiográfica anormal del tórax. Veintinueve años antes se había caído de un caballo, produciéndose una severa contusión torácica. Estudios con contraste del aparato digestivo mostraron visceras abdominales dentro del hemitórax izquierdo. La enferma rehusó corrección quirúrgica del defecto por estar, asintomática y sólo sentir "burbujas en el pulmón".


A 64 year old woman was referred by her rural doctor due toan abnormal chest X ray. Twenty nine years before she had fallen from a horse suffering a severe thoracic contusion. Contrast studies of the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract showed abdominal viscerae inside the left thoracic cavity. The patient refused surgical correction because she considered herself to be asymptomatic and her only complaint was "feeling bubbles in the lung".
