Only 5-10% is type II. paraesophageal and type III. mixed hernias, which may involve serious complication. The single contrast X-ray is the best method for demonstrating the type of hiatal hernias. PATIENTS, METHODS AND RESULTS - During a 3 year period the author was investigated 336 gastric cases. Hiatal hernia was found in 73 patients, six of the cases proved to be the rare II. and III. types. A case of paraoesophageal and five mixed type cases of hernia is briefly described.
