title: [Hernias of the diaphragmatic hiatus: Personal observation].
abstract: The authors report a new personal observation of hernia of the diaphragm hiatus. It is a rare, benign abnormality, generally asymptomatic, raising the diagnostic problem of posterior mediastinal opacities : pneumoperitoneum, retropneumoperitoneum and even pleuroscopy should enable a diagnostic and hence prevent a thoracotomy.
