Abstract

Morgagni hernia (MH) is a very rare congenital defect found in the anterior aspect of the diaphragm between the costal and sternal portions of the muscle. The most common defect is congenital diaphragmatic hernia, 90% of which are Bochdalek type. MHs account for approximately 3% of all diaphragmatic hernias. Most MHs are found and repaired in children, but 5% are found in adults. Here, we present the case of an incarcerated and strangulated MH with synchronous prolapse of the liver and transverse colon in a 77-year-old man who was admitted to our hospital for abdominal pain and symptoms of intestinal obstruction.

Özet

Morgagni hernisi (MH) kasın kostal ve sternal bölümleri arasında diyafragmanın ön yüzünde çok seyrek saptanan doğuştan bir defekttir. En sık görülen defekt doğuştan diyafragma hernisi %90 oranında Bochdalek tipidir. MH’leri tüm diyafragmatik hernilerin aşağı yukarı %90’ını oluşturur. MH’lerin çoğu çocuklarda bulunur ve onarılır, ancak %5’i erişkinlerdedir. Burada, enkansere ve strangüle MH ile eş zamanlı karaciğer ve enine kolon düşüklüğü olan ve karın ağrısı ve intestinal obstrüksiyon semptomlarıyla hastanemize kabul edilmiş 77 yaşındaki bir erkek hastayı sunuyoruz.
