    Computed tomography revealed gastric cardia pseudomasses linked to sliding hiatal hernias in two patients undergoing evaluation for esophageal carcinoma.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Radiology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Sliding hiatal hernias can present with atypical imaging findings.
    • Computed tomography (CT) is a key imaging modality for esophageal pathology.

    Observation:

    • Two cases demonstrated gastric cardia pseudomasses on CT scans.
    • These pseudomasses were associated with sliding hiatal hernias.

    Findings:

    • The pseudomasses mimicked neoplastic lesions in the gastric cardia.
    • Accurate interpretation of CT is crucial for differentiating benign from malignant conditions.

    Implications:

    • Radiologists and gastroenterologists should consider hiatal hernias in the differential diagnosis of gastric cardia pseudomasses.
