“…After we reviewed our cases, it became apparent that evaluating the location of the stomach bubble with the more common left-side diaphragmatic hernia was a very important finding. This has been noted by others [5][6][7][8][9][10].…”

“…Congenital diaphragmatic hernia usually presents in the neonate, but a small percentage of children present later and their imaging findings can be very confusing [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. The reason for this is that the symptoms in these children often cause one to focus on acute chest or abdominal problems.…”

“…In these children, plain film imaging findings can mimic almost any acute chest problem, such as pneumonia with cavitation, pleural effusion, massive pneumothorax and pneumatoceles [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]12]. After plain films, one can proceed to an upper GI series, US, CT or, occasionally, MR [1,4,6,12].…”

A 56-year-old male patient was admitted to the Akdeniz University Hospital (Antalya, Turkey) with a sudden onset of stabbing epigastric pain, nausea and haematemesis. There was no history of trauma, or systemic or chronic disease. The patient was diagnosed as having gastritis and given appropriate treatment. Routine investigations, such as chest radiography, were not performed at this time.Two days later, the patient experienced fever, pain on the left side of the thorax, dyspnoea and a worsening of his general condition. Therefore, he was readmitted to the emergency department.In routine laboratory tests, there were no abnormal findings, with the exception of neutrophilia in peripheral blood. Chest radiography was performed and the results are shown in figure 1.

“…CDH appears rarely outside of the neonatal period, and exceptionally also at birth, with different clinical-radiological features [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] as, e.g., an intrathoracic intestinal obstruction [8][9][10][11][12][13][14] or an intrathoracic gastric dilatation [15][16][17][18].…”
