The authors report two cases of hernia of Morgagni, respectively observed in a 42-year-old man and in a 16-year-old boy. In the first case the diagnosis was previous (20 yrs.) to surgical treatment. On the contrary, in the second case the diagnosis was not possible before surgery because of the patient's young age and mild symptoms. Surgical treatment, through thoracotomy in the first case and laparotomy in the second one, was able to repair the diaphragmatic gap.
