Etymology: From entero- + thorax, analogous to pneumothorax.
Senses: examples: text: Traumatic diaphragm ruptures (DRs) are an unusual condition after blunt thoracoabdominal trauma, and there are some difficulties in the diagnosis, in the absence of the additional life-threatening injuries.

Particularly, to our knowledge, progressive hepatothorax and enterothorax that develop over years are a very rare presentation of DR. Herein, we present a case of progressive thoracic herniation of the abdominal organs, diagnosed 22 years after the initial trauma.

Senses: examples: text: 1986, Horst Herrlich, Miroslav Hušek, Galois Connections, Austin Melton, Mathematical Foundation of Programming Semantics: International Conference, Proceedings, Springer, Lecture Notes in Computer Science: 239, page 122,
Define maps G:A→B and F:B→A by G(a)=y!∈!Y|∀x!∈!axρy and F(b)=x!∈!X|∀y!∈!bxρy. Then (F,G) is called a Galois connection of the first kind.
text: Finally, we discuss Galois connections. It is interesting to note that these definitions can be found in Birkhoff (1940, 1948, 1967) under the heading of "polarities," and Everett (1944) showed that all Galois connections defined on power sets can be obtained from polarities.
ref: 2001, J. Michael Dunn, Gary M. Hardegree, Algebraic Methods in Philosophical Logic, Oxford University Press, page 398:
text: Galois connections appear in several areas of mathematics and computer science, and their applications. A Galois connection between sets X and Y is a pair #92;left#92;langle#92;uparrow,#92;downarrow#92;right#92;rangle of mappings #92;uparrow assigning subcollections of Y to subcollections of X, and #92;downarrow assigning subcollections of X to subcollections of Y.
