Hiatus Hernia:
In this type of hernia, cardiac end of the stomach passes through an abnormally wide oesophageal opening in the diaphragm (see Fig. 2.6). Clinical manifestation includes salivation, regurgitation and vomiting. The vomiting may sometimes be associated with mucus and blood due to oesophageal irritation. There may be failure to thrive, anaemia and pneumonia due to aspiration. There may be retrosternal pain and burning sensation due to oesophagitis which may lead to stenosis in chronic cases. Diagnostic evaluation includes barium swallow which shows free reflux. These children are usually nursed in uprightlpropped up position, antacids are used in case of oesophagitis and semi solid feeds are used to prevent reflux. Surgery is indicated in case of stenosis.
