Abstract

Right diaphragmatic hernia after donor hepatectomy is extremely rare. The occurrence is usually late. We present a case with early occurrence complicated with small bowel strangulation. Early detection and emergency surgical repair relieved the problem quickly. Predisposing factors are discussed. To avoid such a complication is very important.
