| hiatal hernia | <gastroenterology, surgery> A type of hernia that occurs when a portion of the stomach protrudes through the diaphragm (where the oesophagus normally passes through). Obesity and smoking are considered risk factors. Hiatal hernia is often associated with reflux oesophagitis. Symptoms include heartburn, difficulty swallowing, chest pain and belching. Treatment includes H2 antagonists, antacids and medications which strengthen the lower oesophageal sphincter. (27 Sep 1997) |
| paraesophageal hiatal hernia | <radiology> Rolling hiatal hernia, parahiatal hernia, 1% of hiatal hernias, portion of stomach superiorly displaced into the thorax with the oesophagogastric junction remaining in the subdiaphragmatic position Findings: cardia in normal position, herniation of portion of the stomach anterior to oesophagus, frequently nonreducible, may be associated with gastric ulcer of lesser curvature at level of diaphragmatic hiatus (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| hernia, hiatal | Herniation of the lower oesophagus and/or portion of the stomach through the oesophageal hiatus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sliding hiatal hernia | <radiology> Axial hernia, concentric hernia, 99% of hiatal hernias, portion of peritoneal sac forms part of wall of hernia, aetiology: rupture of phrenicoesophageal membrane due to repetitive stretching with swallowing, incidence: increases with age Findings: UGI, epiphrenic bulge, distance between B ring and hiatal margin greater than 2cm, tortuous oesophagus, gastroesophageal reflux, greater than 6 thick gastric folds within suprahiatal pouch, CT, dehiscence of diaphragmtic crura greater than 15 mm, pseudomass within/above distal oesophagus, fat (omemtum) surrounding distal oesophagus (12 Dec 1998) |
| sliding oesophageal hiatal hernia | Displacement of the cardioesophageal junction and the stomach through the oesophageal hiatus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hiatal hernia |
A small opening in the diaphragm allows for the upper portion of the stomach to move backwards into the chest. This is a dynamic condition with the upper stomach changing its position between the upper stomach and lower chest. This is associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease, heartburn and epigastric abdominal pain.

| hiatal h. |
herniation of an abdominal organ, usually the stomach, through the esophageal hiatus of the diaphragm. It occurs in two major anatomic patterns: the sliding hiatal h. (type I), which is the more common type, and the paraesophageal h. (type II).
