Unusual case of Morgagni hernia associated with malrotation

Abstract

Morgagni herniae are rare congenital diaphragmatic hernia, which normally present late in adult life with minimal symptoms. They are always associated with a peritoneal hernial sac, and often contain transverse colon or stomach. We present an unusual case of a Morgagni hernia containing caecum in an 81-year-old woman, post ruptured aortic aneurysm repair.
