===============================================

The diaphragm is a muscular wall that connects the abdomen to the chest. When this thin muscle tears or ruptures, it causes a diaphragmatic hernia or diaphragmatic rupture. The terms can be used interchangeably. Due to the effort required to fill the crowded lungs with air, a feline with a diaphragmatic hernia will be reluctant to exercise and will exhibit signs of breathing difficulties.
