Q

what disease occurs occurs when a portion of the stomach protrudes upward through the esophageal hiatus (opening in the diaphragm that the esophagus passes through) and into the thoracic cavity

A

Hiatal hernia

55
Q

what is this disease called? the lack of dietary fiber and the “unnatural” sitting position (causes straining) used for defecation.

A

Hiatal hernia

56
Q

what type of disease is this?

(sliding type) is usually acquired through an ongoing process of disruption to the GEJ.

A

Hiatal hernia

type 1

57
Q

what type of disease is this?

(rolling type), or paraesophageal, hernias are thought to occur because of an anatomical defect that causes improper anchoring of the stomach below the diaphragm.

A

Hiatal hernia

type 1

61
Q

what disease has this
• Upper abdominal x-ray

  • Endoscopy
  • Barium swallow with fluoroscopy (most specific diagnostic test)
  • Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, or EGD (views the esophagus and stomach lining)

Medications are used for the symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux. Most people who have a hiatal hernia do not experience these symptoms, but if they do, they may require medication management or surgery.

  • Antacids are used to neutralize stomach acid and are usually obtained over the counter. Common antacids are Mylanta, Maalox, Gelusil, Rolaids, and Tums. Common side effects include diarrhea and constipation.
  • Proton pump inhibitors and H2-receptor antagonists are prescribed to treat GERD

laparoscopic antireflux surgeries

  • Gastropexy (attachment of the stomach below the diaphragm to prevent reherniation) is used after reduction if the stomach is unusually movable after reduction is performed. Other surgical procedures for type 2 hernias include:
  • • Herniotomy (surgical removal of the herniated sac)
