Morgagni Hernia: Presentation of 3 Cases and A Short Review of the Literature

Morgagni hernia is a rare type of diaphragm hernia, generally seen on the right side. Diagnosis usually requires chest X-rays. In this study, we aim to share our experience with Morgagni hernia cases to contribute to its early diagnosis and treatment. Among our cases, 2 were admitted with respiratory symptoms while one of the cases was asymptomatic. In one of the cases the disease was diagnosed merely with chest X-ray, but in the other 2 cases thorax computerized tomography was required for differential diagnosis. The hernias were on the right side in all 3 cases and surgical interventions were performed in all of them. Postoperative morbidity or mortality was not observed in these cases
