Cardiological investigation of 23 children (13 boys) with sliding hiatal hernia revealed mitral valve prolapse in 18 patients (10 boys) suggesting a very high association rate of 78.2%. No other signs of connective tissue weakness were seen.
Cardiological evaluation is recommended in every child with hiatal hernia.
