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.

Gastric volvulus can either present as an acute or chronic symptoms according to the degree of gastric rotation and subsequent obstruction. The diagnosis of gastric volvulus is often difficult and is mainly based on imaging studies. We describe a case of mesenteroaxial gastric volvulus associated with paraesophageal hernia, well demonstrated on upper gastrointestinal (UGI) series and coronal reconstructed CT image.
