A case of diaphragmatic rupture after strenuous exercise (swimming) and jump into the sea.

A 20-year-old male patient with complaints of severe chest pain, difficulty in oral feeding, and a feeling of swelling in the abdomen was admitted to the Emergency Clinic. His complaints had begun 15 days prior to admission after strenuous swimming and a jump into the sea from a height of half a meter. Elevation of the left diaphragm was observed on the chest radiography and computerized tomography revealed a rupture in the left diaphragm. Surgical repair was done. The patient attended regular follow-ups and appeared to have no complications as of the sixth month after the treatment.
