4. HERNIA INFORMATION HIATUS ( hiatal ) hernia. Unlike an abdominal (or groin) hernia, a hiatus hernia occurs in the chest area and affects the digestive system. http://www.hernia.org/hiatus.html

WHAT IS A HIATUS ("Hiatal") HERNIA? (Click here to SKIP Hiatus Hernia) Unlike an abdominal (or groin) hernia, a hiatus hernia occurs in the chest area and affects the digestive system. Where the oesophagus ('food pipe', or 'gullet') goes down, it passes the diaphragm through a gap called the hiatus. Immediately below that, it goes into the stomach which sits just below the diaphragm. This hiatus causes a narrowing of the opening into the stomach and this helps prevent stomach contents from going the wrong way, ie upwards, which is called reflux. If the area of the hiatus is weak, the function of 'clamping down' on the entry to the stomach is weakened, the result being the reflux of acidic digestive juices up into the oesophagus, which is not protected against the action of these acids. The outcome of this is often a quite painful burning sensation. Other symptoms patients suffer include chest pain which may extend to just below the shoulder blades. Unlike an abdominal hernia, there are no tell-tale visible symptoms of hiatus hernia, as the whole event occurs inside the chest. The diagnosis is established by a specialist; the combination of symptoms must be confirmed by X-ray and an endoscopy (a view using a lighted tube). What can be done to avoid a hiatus hernia?

What is a hernia? What does a hernia feel like? Why does a hernia hurt? Who gets hernias? ... What if I have other questions? 1. What is a hernia? A hernia is a protrusion of an organ or tissue through an abnormal opening in the body. Most hernias occur when a piece of intestine slips through a weakness in the abdominal wall, creating a bulge you can see and feel. Hernias can develop around the naval, in the groin, or any place where you may have had a surgical incision. Some hernias are present at birth. Others develop slowly over a period of months or years. Hernias also can come on quite suddenly. Think of it this way Think of your hernia as a bulge in a tire. The outer wall of the tire is like your abdominal wall. The inner tube of the tire is like your intestines (Figure 1). Most of the time the outer wall of the tire is strong enough to hold the inner tube, but if the wall weakens, a bulge may occur (Figure 2). Just like a hernia may form in a weakness in the abdominal wall (Figure 3).
