Case description

The endoscopic view of a hiatal hernia shows the herniation of the stomach through the esophageal hiatus into the mediastinum. This view is crucial for diagnosing conditions like severe gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Endoscopy can help visualize the hernia, determine its size and location, and evaluate any complications.
