Demetrius Chilaiditi first described hepatodiaphragmatic interposition of hollow viscera in 1910 as an incidental finding on chest X-rays; this is since known as Chilaiditi's sign. 1 It has an incidence of 0.3% on chest X-rays and 2.4% on chest/abdominal CT scans. 2 Accompanied by clinical symptoms such as abdominal pain, vomiting, and/or Chilaiditi sign is a rare radiological finding in which the colon is interposed between the liver and the abdominal wall. Once patients become symptomatic, the condition is called Chilaiditi Chilaiditi syndrome was first described in 1910 by Chilaiditi, a Greek radiologist ( 1 ). The incidence of this syndrome in the general population ranges from 0.025% to 0.28% ( 2 ). Unless the presence of volvulus is suspected, patients with Chilaiditi syndrome often respond to conservative treatments, such as nasogastric decompression.
