ID: exh73018a
This is a series of 4 illustrations that begins with a depiction of the normal gastroesophageal junction in a sagittal cut view. Next we see a depiction of a hiatal hernia and then a post-accident condition with tear of the diaphragm at the site of the hiatal hernia which had been repaired prior to the accident. A gastroesophageal valvuloplasty is the type of hiatal hernia repair that was performed prior to the accident.
