A diaphragmatic hernia is also known as a hiatal hernia, which is a condition in which part of the stomach protrudes upward through the diaphragm muscle into the chest cavity. Polyps are growths that can occur in various parts of the body, such as the colon. Inguinal hernias occur in the groin area, while esophageal varices are swollen veins in the esophagus, typically due to liver disease.
