The most common cause of traumatic diaphragmatic rupture is blunt or penetrating thoraco-abdominal trauma. The proper diagnosis can be difficult to make due to the non-specific clinical picture. The surgical approach in managing diaphragmatic rupture includes laparotomy, thoracotomy, or both.

The study suggests that diaphragmatic injury should be considered in patients with blunt or penetrating thoraco-abdominal trauma.
