Simultaneous Occurrence of Subcostosternal (Morgagni) Hernia and Hiatus Hernia

Presentation and management of Morgagni hernias in adults: a review of 298 cases

“…Some authors believe that patients with a herniated stomach are more likely to have serious symptoms than those with herniated colon and/or omentum [14]. Occasionally, patients may have a coexisting paraesophageal hernia [15][16][17][18][19]. There are two reported cases of a right Morgagni defect containing both pleural and peritoneal contents [20].…”

A rare case report of Morgagni Hernia with Organo-Axial Gastric Volvulus and concomitant Para-esophageal hernia, repaired laparoscopically in a Septuagenarian

“…As first reported by Lund et al Simultaneous occurrence of Morgagni and the Para-esophageal hernia is a rare clinical condition with eight cases in the English-language literature and only four managed laparoscopically [ Table 1 ] [ [2] , [4] , [5] , [6] , [7] , [8] , [9] , [10] ]. We describe a case profile of a Septuagenarian patient with Morgagni and concomitant Para-esophageal hernia treated laparoscopically in a tertiary community care hospital.…”

Case of giant paraesophageal hiatal hernia associated with Morgagni hernia

“…Simultaneous paraesophageal and Morgagni hernias are very rare. Lund et al first reported simultaneous Morgagni and paraesophageal hernias in 1958 . Only three cases of laparoscopic repair for this type of hernia have been reported, and the etiology of the coexistence of these two types of hiatal hernia remains unclear .…”
