Parahiatal hernia: Diagnotic dilemma and therapeutic controversy

Para-hiatal hernia is an extremely rare subtype of diaphragmatic hernia with an incidence of 0.2-0.35%.

In contrast with para-oesophageal hernia, the defect in para-hiatal hernia lies between the fibres of left crus, making it a distinct entity from hiatal hernia. Due to similarities with para-oesophageal hernia, its diagnosis is almost never made clinically.

We present a case of intraoperatively diagnosed para-hiatal hernia, which was repaired with meshplasty, followed by fundoplication.

Due to its rare occurrence, a controversy revolves around its management. We have performed a literature review and provided a simplified protocol for the same.


Presented at the SAGES 2017 Annual Meeting in Houston, TX.
