A 61 year old female presents with history of recurrent chest infection, regurgitation of food and feeling of fullness. What is the most probable diagnosis ?
In carcinoma esophagus and achalasia the prominent symptom is dysphagia and not regurgitation of food. Tracheoesophageal fistula is unlikely to occur in this age group. So we are left with hiatal hernia in which all the above mentioned symptoms are present.
Hiatus hernia
Carcinoma esophagus
Tracheoesophageal fistula
Achlasia cardia
