Abstract
Congenital diaphragmatic hernias are rarely encountered in adult patients [1]. The hernia of Morgagni is a rare type, which remains asymptomatic in the majority of patients. In this publication, we report the case of an elderly patient, whose hernia, until now unknown, was revealed following the investigations made for an acute cholecystitis.
