Bilateral congenital anterior diaphragmatic hernia: a case report.

The anteromedial diaphragmatic hernias of Morgagni and Larrey are the least common defects that occur in this organ. Simultaneous occurrence has been described but remains an absolute rarity. We herein present a case of this bilateral herniation with a unique presentation.

[Benign tumors of the liver].

Benign tumours of the liver, being rare compared to malignant forms, constitute a big diagnostic and therapeutic problem to prove their benignity and the relation between the patients' symptoms and their existence. During 1983-91, we had the chance to study ten (10) patients with benign liver tumour-six (6) women and four (4) men-with a mean age of 51 years, concerning 5 hemangiomas, one hepatic adenoma and 4 focal nodular hyperplasia. Two of the hemangiomas coexisted with metastatic liver tumours.
