Hiatal hernia and Morgagni hernia are sorts of diaphragmatic hernias that are rarely detected on transthoracic echocardiography. Although echocardiographic findings have an important role for differential diagnosis of cardiac masses, we often might overlook diaphragmatic hernia. We report three cases of diaphragmatic hernias having specific features. The first case is huge hiatal hernia that encroaches left atrium with internal swirling flow on transthoracic echocardiography. The second case is a hiatal hernia that encroaches on both atria, incidentally detected on preoperative echocardiography. The third case is Morgagni hernia which encroaches on the right atrium only. So, we need to consider possibility of diaphragmatic hernia when we find a cardiac mass with specific echocardiographic features.

Intrathoracic stomach due to hiatal hernia is a very rare finding. We report here on such an asymptomatic case, and this malady was diagnosed by chest radiographs and CT.

Surgically corrected congenital hiatal hernia associated with anemia has been presented. A 1 year old boy has been complained of severe pallor and fever on admission. Reentgenologic examination revealed thoracic stomach and then the hernia was repaired by transabdominal approach. It was found to be a paraesophageal type hiatal hernia. Pathogenesis and complications of congenital histal hernia were discussed and briefly reviewed.

This is a case report of a sliding hiatal hernia with severe gastroesophageal reflux (GER) after repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia(CDH). It was not possible to determine whether the hiatal hernia is a de novo lesion which was missed at the original operation or a consequence of overzealous repair of the Bochdalek defect at the expense of weakening of the diaphragmatic crura. This case demonstrates that a sliding hiatal hernia can be a cause of severe gastroesophageal reflux that should be managed surgically.

PURPOSE: The authors undertook this study to compare their modified version of sleeve gastrectomy with conventional sleeve gastrectomy in terms of the severity and incidence of gastroesophageal reflux. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study was conducted for the patients that underwent primary laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in a single center from 2011 to 2015. Patients that underwent conventional LSG were allocated to Group A (n=46), and sleeve contouring gastrectomy to Group B (n=45). Postoperatively %EBMIL, PPI use, and endoscopy findings, and receipt of conversion surgery were compared. RESULTS: Age, gender (F:M), and baseline BMI in groups A and B were 34.2±10.5 years vs. 30.9±8.9 years (P=0.142), 28:18 vs. 30:15 (P=0.565), and 36.8±8.9 kg/m² vs. 35.5±5.8 kg/m² (P=0.046), respectively. %EBMIL values at 1 year postoperatively were not different (P=0.946), mean durations of PPI use were 141.2±240.3 (30–1160) days vs. 71.9±24.3 (60–128) days, respectively (P=0.058). Endoscopic findings at 1 year were LA-M in 22/32 (68.8%) vs 19/24 (79.2%), LA-A in 7/32 (21.9%) vs. 5/24 (20.8%), LA-B in 1/32 (3.1%) vs. 0/24 (0.0%), and LA-C in 2/32 (6.3%) vs. 0/24 (0.0%) (P=0.483). Numbers of patients used PPIs over 1 year were 4/46 (8.77%) vs. 0/45 (0.0%) (P=0.043), and conversions to RYGP were 1/46 (2.21%) vs. 0/45 (0.0%), respectively (P=0.320). CONCLUSION: Contouring of the sleeve in LSG in this study might reduce the incidence of de novo GERD without compromising weight loss.
