[A case of combined Morgagni and esophageal hiatal hernias successfully repaired by endoscopy and laparoscopy].

An 87-year-old woman with a 4-month history of postprandial gastrointestinal obstruction was admitted to our facility after suddenly vomiting black matter. Computed tomography and esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed gastric prolapse and prolapse of the duodenum and transverse colon. Morgagni hernia combined with esophageal hiatal hernia was diagnosed. Gastric and duodenal obstructions were successfully repaired by endoscopy, followed by laparoscopic repair. Endoscopic repair helped the patient avoid fasting before surgery. The patient had a history of several chest bruises, which were detected by chest X-rays and suspected to be the cause of the hernias over time.
