Abstract
A hernia of Morgagni was successfully repaired laparoscopically by red
ucing the hernia, mobilizing the peritoneum around the perimeter of th
e defect, and stapling polypropylene mesh onto the surrounding fascia,
This type of repair is technically easy and should give a high probab
ility of success.
