Morgagni hernias are uncommon and account for 1-2% of all congenital diaphragmatic hernia. We report our fi rst laparoscopic repair of two Morgagni hernias, using a single umbilical incision and full-thickness abdominal wall repair with standard straight laparoscopic instruments. Operative time was short and compared favourably with the laparoscopic repair.enThis work is distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License.Morgagni herniaLaparoscopicSingle incisionArticle
