Abstract

Foramen of Morgagni hernias are rare diaphragmatic hernias, usually occurring on the right and located in the anterior mediastinum. Adult patients diagnosed with a foramen of Morgagni hernia are usually asymptomatic and associated with obesity, trauma or other causes of increased intraabdominal pressure. Plain pulmonary roentgenogram, radiological studies of the gastrointestinal system with contrast material, computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging studies are helpful in diagnosis. In this article, a 78-year-old female case with a Morgagni hernia incidentally diagnosed on chest X-ray is presented.

Özet

Morgagni hernisi nadir bir diyafragmatik hernidir, genellikle sağda ve ön mediastende yer alır. Erişkin hastalarda çoğunlukla asemptomatiktir ve obesite, travma ya da intraabdominal basıncı artıran diğer nedenlerle ilişkilidir. Akciğer grafisi, kontrastlı gastrointestinal radyolojik yöntemler, bigisayarlı tomografi ve magnetik rezonans tanıya yardımcı olur. Bu olguda 78 yaşında Morgagni hernili kadın hastaya akciğer grafisi ile tanı kondu.
