Initial diagnostics and imaging suggested a pleuroperitoneal or hiatal hernia. Emergency abdominal exploration was performed, and a complex type II paraesophageal hiatal hernia was identified. The entire stomach, greater and lesser omenta, spleen, left limb of the pancreas, and the proximal segment of the descending duodenum were herniated through a discrete defect in the phrenicoesophageal ligament. After reduction of the herniated organs back into the abdomen, a phrenicoplasty, esophagopexy, and left-sided fundic gastropexy were performed. The cat recovered uneventfully from the procedure and was free of any signs of disease for at least 30 mo postoperatively. This is the first detailed report of the findings and successful surgical treatment of a complex congenital, type II paraesophageal hiatal hernia with complete herniation of the stomach, omenta, and spleen in a cat.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5326\/jaaha-ms-6148","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,17]],"date-time":"2015-06-17T18:31:10Z","timestamp":1434565870000},"page":"252-255","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Congenital Paraesophageal Hernia in a Cat"],"prefix":"10.5326","volume":"51","author":[{"given":"Kim","family":"Tong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Kim Tong's present affiliation is Department of Surgery, Animal Medical Center, New York, NY."},{"name":"From the Dallas Veterinary Surgical Center, Dallas, TX (K.T.); and Department of Small Animal Clinical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, Veterinary Medical Center, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI (R.G.)."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Reunan","family":"Guillou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Dallas Veterinary Surgical Center, Dallas, TX (K.T.); and Department of Small Animal Clinical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, Veterinary Medical Center, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI (R.G.)."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Doc","family":"V\u00e9t","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Reunan Guillou's present affiliation is Departments of Soft Tissue and Orthopedic Surgery, College of Veterinary Medicine, Veterinary Medical Center, The Ohio State University, Dublin, OH."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"3280","reference":[{"key":"i1547-3317-51-4-252-b01","series-title":"Vet Med Small Anim Clin","first-page":"391","article-title":"Hiatal diaphragmatic hernia and tricholithiasis in a Golden cat (a case history)","volume":"67","author":"Frye\n              FL.","year":"1972","unstructured":"Frye\n              FL.\n            \n          \n          Hiatal diaphragmatic hernia and tricholithiasis in a Golden cat (a case history).
