“…In some cases, as described by Karaman et al and Grijs et al, the herniated tissue, consisting of either liver, stomach, omen-tum, or transverse colon, was able to be separated from adhesions to the chest wall, so a simple reduction and primary repair was successful [7,10]. Our case falls more into the group of cases described by Travers et al and Harris et al, in which the external herniated tissue, mainly liver, needed to be resected prior to reduction [9,11]. These 2 reports are similar to our case, as the only tissue herniated through the thoracic wall defect was part of the liver.…”
