Hiatal Hernia protrusion of the stomach upward into the mediastinal cavity through the esophageal hiatus (opening) of the diaphragm
--sliding:90% of cases
--rolling: paraesophageal
An hole in the diaphragm allows for a portion of the stomach to protrude into the chest, a condition known as a hiatal hernia. The muscular layer that seperates the chest from the belly is called the diaphragm.
Hiatal hernia has an unknown specific etiology. The supporting tissue may be poor, which would explain the problem. Age, weight, and smoking all increase your chance for the issue. Hiatal hernias are quite frequent. People over 50 are frequently affected by the issue.
Gastric acid from the stomach flowing back into the esophagus may be responsible for this illness.
Most typically, children with this syndrome are born with it (congenital). In infants, it frequently coexists with gastroesophageal reflux.
