AbstractDiaphragmatic ruptures represent a rare but potentially serious clinical entity that is often integrated into polytrauma. We report a case of left diaphragmatic rupture, discovered twenty days after an accident on the public highway. For the diagnosis, it is necessary to insist on the body scan, whose sensitivity is undoubtedly less than that of other more specific examinations, but which is easily interpretable and accessible in most emergency centers. The order of surgical management is taken at clinical examination, and before the existence of an abdominal emergency. Keywords: Diaphragmatic rupture, Body scansÖz Diyafragma rüptürleri, sıklıkla politravmaya entegre olan nadir fakat potansiyel olarak ciddi bir klinik durumu temsil eder. Karayolu üzerinde meydana gelen bir kazadan yirmi gün sonra ortaya çıkan bir sol diyafragma rüptürü vakasını sunduk. Teşhis için, vücudun taramasında ısrar etmek gerekir; hassasiyeti diğer özel muayene tekniklerinden daha azdır, ancak çoğu acil merkezde kolayca yorumlanabilir ve erişilebilirdir. Cerrahi tedavi sırası, klinik muayenede ve bir abdominal acil durum varlığına göre önceye alınır.
