Abstract
We report a case of diaphragmatic hernia of Morgagni with a unique clinical presentation. It is important to know all the possible complications and acute presentations of Morgagni hernia. Before the innovation of laparoscopy in the treatment of diaphragmatic hernia, it is used to be treated either through abdominal approach or, in most cases, thoracic approach.
