CTICasesMorgagni Hernia
Imaging findings
A large mass in the right base with gas/cavitation (identified as colon) and significant fat component. Cross-sectional imaging shows a medial anterior diaphragmatic defect with vessels streaming into the hernia.
Key takeaways
These hernias are typically centered near the midline but the omental fat contents tend to shift to the right due to the heart's position blocking expansion to the left.
