Abstract
Ultrasonography seems to be a valuable, safe, and practical alternative that avoids the side effects of contrast agents in the diagnosis of sliding hiatal hernias. Overall, we suggest that inclusion of ultrasound in the initial diagnostic steps for patients with sliding hiatal hernias may reduce the requirement for more expensive procedures.
