ABSTRACT
Introduction: A Morgagni diaphragmatic hernia is predominantly on the right hemidiaphragm and is usually identified in adulthood, after events that cause increased in intra-abdominal pressure, such as pregnancy, obesity or ascites, causing respiratory and digestive symptoms.
Case report: Female of 65 years of age with a history of a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bilateral inguinal hernia repair six years ago, four pregnancies resolved by childbirth and bilateral tubal ligation 18 years ago. The patient comes for assessment due to progressive dyspnea after medium and strenuous efforts, finding in chest X-ray and tomography a right diaphragmatic hernia. This was resolved satisfactorily by a laparoscopic approach with reduction of a hernia, which had a defect of 9.5 × 6 cm and a hernia sack of 14 x 11 cm containing colon and omentum; the reconstruction was performed by placing a mesh of carboxymethylcellulose-hyaluronate and polypropylene in the hernia defect. The patient presented with an adequate postoperative evolution.
Conclusions: One more case is added to the literature where the laparoscopic approach is viable and a good therapeutic option for the resolution of the Morgagni hernia. More studies are required to confirm long-term results.
