Abstract
A diaphragmatic hernia was found in a pre-partum dairy heifer that was exhibiting signs of respiratory disease. Ruminal tympany was included in the history although this was not a feature of the disease on admission. Diagnosis was made by auscultation and confirmed by radiology and during elective Caesarean section to remove the fetus.
