Abstract:
We report an unusual case of strangulated diaphragmatic hernia secondary to a pericardial ablation, which resulted in necrosis of the incarcerated small bowel. Through a literature search, we have found a limited number of similar cases introducing a case series for this rare but potentially fatal condition.
