Abstract
The upside-down stomach (UDS) is a rare presentation of a Type III paraesophageal hernia with organo-axial rotation. Symptoms typically manifest as postprandial chest pain or dysphagia. Laparoscopic paraesophageal hernia repair is indicated in operable patients with symptomatic paraesophageal hernias.
