Abstract
This article retrospectively reviews the laparoscopic repair of Morgagni hernias in 3 children. The surgical procedure was performed by closing the defect using extracorporeal, interrupted, nonabsorbable sutures. Recovery was uneventful in all 3 patients. There were no recurrences and the chest radiograph stayed normal during the postoperative follow-up.
