Abstract
A case of postaccident diaphragmatic hernia in 10-month old filly is disscussed in this article. Auscultation and comparatively percussion of the both sides of the chest were performed. The lateral thoracic radiograph and transthoracic ultrasound were done to support the diagnosis. Clinical status and biochemical blood parameters were checked for the assessment of complications. ECG showed a tendency to progressive lessening of R and T wave’s amplitude.
