Dr. Milind Shah successfully treated a patient with congenital peritoneo-pericardial hernia through open surgery

Peritoneo-pericardial diaphragmatic hernias are rare congenital defects. Usually, this condition presents at birth and only few cases have been reported in literature. Adult presentation is varied depending on herniated organ and size of defect. It can be managed successfully by surgical intervention.
