Esophagus passes through an opening in the diaphragm (i.e. hiatus) on its way to connect to the stomach. Hiatal hernias occur when the muscle tissue surrounding hiatus becomes weak, causing the bulging of the upper part of the stomach through the diaphragm into the chest cavity. It is generally caused due to obesity, pregnancy, aging, or thinning of the phrenoesophageal membrane
