DYSPNEA ASSOCIATED WITH HIATAL HERNIA

Abstract

Hiatal herniation of abdominal contents into thoracic cavity is a rare cause of dyspnea. We present in this case report an 81-year-old woman with follicular lymphoma who presented to our emergency department with dyspnea. Physical examination, oxygen saturation on room air, and ECG were normal. Chest X-Ray showed gastric and colonic gas behind the silhouette of the heart. Thorax CT revealed a wide defect in diaphragma with herniation of the stomach and transverse colon. Thoracic surgery department did not consider any urgent intervention and recommended outpatient control. Dyspne are gressed spontaneously with supplemental nasal oxygen. The patient was discharged after symptoms were completely resolved.
