    Author: Eren S, Gümüş H, Okur A.
    Journal: Hernia; 2003 Jun; 7(2):97-9. PubMed ID: 12820034.
    Abstract:
    Morgagni's hernia is a rare congenital diaphragmatic herniation and is usually diagnosed in childhood. It is quite rare in adults, and intestinal obstruction as a complication due to intrathoracic intestinal herniation rarely occurs. We present the plain radiography and computed tomography findings of an adult patient with acute abdomen symptoms due to Morgagni's hernia.
