    What problems can a hiatal hernia cause?

    Dr. Marcelle Freire

    Doctor of Medicine · 3 years of exp

    Hiatal hernia is the projection of the stomach into the thoracic cavity through the communication between the thorax and the abdomen through which the esophagus crosses from one cavity to another. Most patients do not feel any symptoms, but some others may have reflux, burning that worsens when lying down, frequent burping, swallowing difficulties, fatigue or even chest pain (which can simulate a heart attack). Patients are generally more symptomatic the greater the herniation. Normally, hiatal hernias evolve without further complications, but eventually they can complicate with significant reflux and pulmonary aspiration, leading to aspiration pneumonia, bleeding due to the development of gastric ulcers or even obstruction of the esophagus-gastric transit.
