Zusammenfassung:Morgagni-Larrey hernia is a rare pathology resulting from an anterior diaphragmatic defect. Diagnosis is often made in adulthood due to the lack of symptoms associated with this condition. Various surgical techniques have been reported for its treatment, but no standard approach has been established due to its rarity. Here, we present the case of a 42-year-old patient with a symptomatic Larrey hernia successfully treated with a laparoscopic approach. The rationale for documenting this case lies in contributing to the understanding and management of this rare condition.
