A member asked:
What are the chances of strangulating a sliding hiatal hernia? is it rare or common?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I believe that only a paraesophageal hiatal hernia is predisposed to incarceration and strangulation. A gastroenterologist or thoracic surgeon can answer your question best,however.
