The present research has been taken over 56 cadavers from the dissecting material of the Department of Anatomy and Histology in the time of four dissecting courses. Tissue defects of the diaphragma with or without diaphragmatic hernias has been searched for. Also it has been followed the frequency of the sliding and the paraesophageal hiatus hernias. The tissue changes has been carefully described. In 12 of the cases it has been determinate defects of the diaphragma, as in two of the cases has been found parahiatal hernias as well. In 7 of the cases it has been found relatively wide hiatus esophageus, as 3 of them were accompanied with hiatus hernias. It has been determinate one case with combined defect--hiatal and parahiatal hernia. It has been discuss the possible reasons for their appearance and simply anatomical aspects of the surgical correcting techniques, which are known to us.
