Abstract
A 59-year-old, other wise asymptomatic lady known to have bronchial asthma was found to have an anterior mediastinal mass on a chest radiograph incidentally obtained as a part of pre-operative work-up for cataract surgery. Computed tomography of the chest confirmed the diagnosis of Morgagni’s hernia.
