Overview
The cause of hiatus hernia has not been identified clearly. Hiatus hernia is defined as the herniation of contents of the abdominal cavity via the esophageal hiatus of the diaphragm due to weakening of the muscles around esophagus. Hiatus hernia may be caused by older age, trauma, congenital defects, increase in the abdominal pressure, obesity, and smoking.
Causes
Common Causes
Common causes of hiatus hernia include:[1][2]
- Age: Hiatus hernia is most common in people who are 50 years or more of age.
- Obesity: Obesity cause Increased pressure in the abdomen.
- Gender: Hiatus hernia is more common in women than men.
Less Common Causes
Less common causes of disease name include:
- Trauma: when undergoing surgery
- Frequent coughing
- Straining with constipation
- Frequent bending over or heavy lifting
- Heredity:Being born with an unusually large hiatus
- Smoking
- Stress
