Abstract
Concurrence of a congenital Morgagni hernia and paraesophageal hernia is rare and can occasionally present as a medical emergency. Here, we report a unique case of a patient with paroxysms of cough-induced syncope secondary to cardiac compression by a simultaneously occurring anterior Morgagni hernia and posterior paraesophageal hernia.
