PURPOSE: To determine the association of endoscopic degree with GERD and to identify type of findings with roentgenography of hiatal hernia. МATERIALS AND METHODS: We evaluated the 30 patients, who are diagnosed with hiatal hernia at Department of Radiology of Third Central Hospital, Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia between years of 2015 to 2016. RESULTS: Our study included 17 female (57.7% ± 9.1) and 13 (43.3% ± 9.1) male overall 30 patients with hiatal hernia between age of 39-82. Paraesophageal hernia was no detected among patients under 54 years old whereas 1 (25%) out of 4 (13.3%) patients with paraesophageal hernia were 55-64 years old. Seven (26.9%) of 26 (86.7%) patients with axial type hiatal hernia were between age of 45-54. In 7 (23.3%) patients with GERD М who are diagnosed by endoscopic examination had 14.4% mild, 28.6% moderate and 57.1% severe types of hiatal hernia. The 66.7% of 3 (10.0%) GERD A degree patients had mild, 33.3% patients had moderate hiatal hernia. The 62.5% of 8 (26.7%) GERD B degree patients had mild, 37.6% patients had severe hiatal hernia. The 25.0% of 8 (26.7%) patients who are diagnosed GERD C degree had mild, 62.5% patients had moderate hiatal hernia and 12.5% had severe type of hiatal hernia. The 25.0% of 4 (13.3%) patients who are diagnosed GERD D degree had moderate, 75.0% patients had severe hiatal hernia and there was no mild type of hiatal hernia detected (p < 0.045). CONCLUSION: 1. Under 54 years old there was no paraesophageal hernia detected and 26.9% of patients with axial hiatal hernia were 45-54 years old. 2. Among patients with GERD A who are diagnosed with flexible endoscopy, 66.7% has mild degree of hiatal hernia, 75% of GERD D patients had severe hiatal hernia reveals that GERD degree is direct association with degree of hiatal hernia.
