Chilaiditi syndrome can be initially misdiagnosed as a diaphragmatic hernia. 21-23 Interestingly, there have been reports in the literature of bowel interposition accompanied by a right-sided Bochdalek hernia. 21,22 Although Chilaiditi sign is a rare entity overall, this challenging diagnosis should be considered when a patient presents with Chilaiditi's syndrome can cause a variety of symptoms including abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and small bowel obstruction. The specific symptoms and presentation of Chilaiditi's syndrome can vary greatly from one person to another. The cause of Chilaiditi's syndrome is not fully understood. In most cases, interposition of a portion of Chilaiditi syndrome is a rare condition when pain occurs due to transposition of a loop of large intestine (usually transverse colon) in between the diaphragm and the liver, visible on plain abdominal X-ray or chest X-ray. Normally this causes no symptoms, and this is called Chilaiditi's sign. The sign can be permanently present, or sporadically. Chilaiditi sign has a 0.025% to 0.28% incidence worldwide with a male to female ratio of 4:1. It most commonly occurs in the elderly population, where there is a 1% incidence. However, it has documentation in patients from 5 months of age to 81 years of age. There is also an 8.8% incidence in mentally ill patients. Utility billing questions. Customer Service 480-350-8361.
