Abstract
Simultaneous paraesophageal and Morgagni hernias are very rare. Here, we report a case involving a 91-year-old woman with simultaneous paraesophageal and Morgagni hernias. Both hernias were repaired laparoscopically. The postoperative course was uneventful. Laparoscopic repair for hernias seems to be feasible and minimally invasive, but only a few reports have described such repairs of hernial orifices.Entities:
