Congenital hernia of the diaphragmatic dome is defined as a congenital embryopathy where all or part of the diaphragmatic dome fails to form during embryonic development. The classification is based on the location of the defect in the diaphragm. In this report, we present a case of Morgani hernia in a 52-year-old man whose sole initial symptom was dyspnea, occurring within the context of a SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) infection. Morgagni hernia is a congenital diaphragmatic hernia. It is rare and comprises only about 2% of all diaphragmatic hernias. Most cases of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) manifest with respiratory distress during infancy. CDH is a rare condition that can occur in adults and can have various symptoms that are often misdiagnosed or not fully investigated. Morgagni's hernia is currently associated with other malformations or anomalies such as Trisomy 21. CT scan of the chest and abdomen remains the best imaging method to confirm the diagnosis. Surgical correction is the only treatment for Morgagni hernia.
先天性膈穹窿疝被定义为一种先天性胚胎病，在胚胎发育过程中，膈穹窿的全部或部分未能形成。其分类基于膈肌缺损的位置。在本报告中，我们呈现了一例52岁男性的莫尔加尼疝病例，其最初唯一的症状是在感染严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2（COVID - 19）的情况下出现的呼吸困难。莫尔加尼疝是一种先天性膈疝。它很罕见，仅占所有膈疝的约2%。大多数先天性膈疝（CDH）病例在婴儿期表现为呼吸窘迫。CDH是一种罕见疾病，可发生于成人，且可有多种症状，常被误诊或未得到充分检查。目前，莫尔加尼疝与其他畸形或异常有关，如21三体综合征。胸部和腹部的CT扫描仍然是确诊的最佳影像学方法。手术矫正为莫尔加尼疝的唯一治疗方法。
