Hiatus hernia, X-ray
Hiatus hernia, coloured X-ray. Side view of a patient suffering from a hiatus hernia, the protrusion of the stomach through the diaphragm into the chest. The spine (green, down left) and ribs (green, upper right) are also seen. A hiatus hernia occurs when part of the stomach protrudes into the chest cavity through the hole through that the oesophagus (gullet, top left) normally passes. The most usual symptom is gastro- oesophageal reflux, the passage of gastric juice up the oesophagus

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate details of a hiatus hernia, showcasing the complexity and impact of this medical condition. In vivid colors, we see a side view of a patient suffering from this ailment, where the stomach protrudes through the diaphragm into the chest cavity. The green-colored spine and ribs provide additional context to understand how this abnormality affects the body. A hiatus hernia occurs when part of the stomach extends into the chest cavity through an opening that is typically reserved for the passage of food from our esophagus. This condition often leads to gastro-esophageal reflux, causing gastric juice to flow back up into our esophagus. The image highlights both its diagnostic and educational value in healthcare. With its radiographic clarity, it aids medical professionals in diagnosing and understanding hiatus hernias accurately. Furthermore, it serves as an essential tool for patients seeking knowledge about their own health conditions. Through this visually striking photograph by Science Photo Library, viewers gain insight into one aspect of digestive system disorders—specifically related to hiatus hernias. It showcases both scientific precision and artistic beauty while shedding light on a significant medical issue affecting countless individuals worldwide.
