The cumulative data regarding five cases of Morgagni hernias in infants and children over the last six years have been reviewed. All five patients were clinically normal upon presentation; however, the most common symptoms and signs were respiratory. Chest x-ray was the most common diagnostic test. The diagnoses were also later confirmed with preoperative barium meal studies. All of the patients had additional congenital anomalies, of which malrotation of the gut was the most commonly encountered. Upon operation, all of the cases contained a hollow viscus, and had a sac. The defects were repaired through abdominal approaches. There was no mortality and postoperative complication in these series.
