  ABSTRACT: Bilateral Bogdaleck hernia is a rare diaphragmatic hernia that is often detected late. It is most often discovered by chance. Our objective was to report a case diagnosed at the Kati Friendship Medical Clinic. The examination was performed using a 16-slice General Electric CT scanner. The patient’s anonymity and confidentiality were respected. The patient was a 68-year-old woman referred to the Medical Imaging Department of the Amitie Medical Clinic in Kati for a chest CT scan due to suspected pulmonary embolism. The chest CT scan revealed the presence of a bilateral posterior diaphragmatic hernia defect measuring 33 mm on the right and 46 mm on the left, allowing the omentum to pass through. Bilateral Bogdaleck hernia is a very rare anomaly that is often detected late. Atypical signs must be taken into account when diagnosing this condition.
