Abstract：Objective: To analyze the prenatal ultrasound features of fetal esophageal hiatal hernia(EHH). Methods: The prenatal ultrasonography and chest MRI of fetal EHH were collected and the ultrasonography features were summarized. Results: Of the 10 patients with EHH, 9 cases were simple gastric vesicles, and 1 case was multiple organs. Three cases were found EHH during mid-pregnancy(14～26 weeks). Five cases occurred EHH in the late gestation(32～39 weeks), while no abnormalities were found during early and middle period. Two cases were normal before birth, and the EHH was found within 1 week after birth. Of the 10 cases, 4 cases were simple EHH, while 6 cases accompanied with other organ abnormalities, including 3 cases of cardiovascular abnormalities, 1 case of duplication of esophagus, 1 case of hepatic cysts, 1 case of hypothyroidism after birth and short long bone in the limbs of the fetus. In 10 cases, 5 cases without other severe deformities were followed up after birth. No signs of chromosomal or gene related abnormalities were found in 7 cases after birth. Conclusion: EHH can be found and diagnosed by prenatal ultrasonography examination, most of them were found in late pregnancy. Most of the EHH happened with other fetal abnormalities, especially cardiovascular abnormalities, simple EHH does not affect lung development, the prognosis is promising.
