Journal Title: Journal of Surgery : Concepts & Practice - Year 2024, Vol 29, Issue 4
Abstract
Hiatal hernia, para-hiatal hernia, diaphragmatic hernia, diaphragmatic agenesis and diaphragmatic eventration are the main types of the diseases with diaphragmatic anatomic abnormalities. Benign and malignant tumors of the diaphragm are not discussed in this paper. Caused by the lack of knowledge about these diseases, improper imaging, clinical diagnosis is often confusing. Based on the literatures and our own experience, this paper proposes the concept of “diseases with diaphragmatic anatomic abnormalities”. The purpose is to summarize these diseases, and briefly describe the treatment methods, and to help strengthen the understanding and treatment of such diseases.
