Paraesophageal hiatal hernia, though uncommon, affects older adults with vague abdominal issues or surgical emergencies. This review covers its causes, diagnosis, and complications.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Surgery
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Paraesophageal hiatal hernia (PEH) is an uncommon condition often seen in the elderly.
  • It can lead to chronic abdominal symptoms or acute surgical emergencies like incarceration or strangulation.

Observation:

  • This review details the pathophysiology and clinical-anatomical features of PEH.
  • Diagnostic imaging and instrumental methods are discussed, differentiating PEH from sliding hiatal hernias.

Findings:

  • The article illustrates key diagnostic radiological and instrumental findings for PEH.
  • Complications such as incarceration, strangulation, and obstruction are highlighted.

Implications:

  • Understanding PEH is crucial for timely diagnosis and management.
