Hernia of Morgagni is congenital defects in the diaphragm. They are mostly asymptomatic and present with vague symptoms when they do so. A high index of suspicion is required for timely diagnose of this condition. Here we present the case of a 65-year-old male patient presented to our institute with constipation for the past six months. Chest radiology raised the suspicion of a hernia which was further confirmed by contrast studies. Laparotomy was done and the hernia sac identified, colon and greater omentum reduced and defect repaired. He was discharged in stable condition and was doing well on follow-up.
莫尔加尼疝是膈肌的先天性缺陷。它们大多无症状,出现症状时也很不明确。及时诊断这种疾病需要高度的怀疑指数。在此,我们报告一例65岁男性患者,在过去6个月里因便秘前来我院就诊。胸部放射学检查引发了对疝的怀疑,造影检查进一步证实了这一诊断。进行了剖腹手术,确定了疝囊,还纳了结肠和大网膜,并修复了缺损。患者出院时情况稳定,随访时状况良好。
