Article Synopsis
- Chilaiditi syndrome is a rare condition where the colon is positioned between the liver and diaphragm, often seen on X-rays as Chilaiditi's sign, and can lead to severe complications if misdiagnosed.
- A 72-year-old male with COPD experienced shortness of breath, abdominal pain, and vomiting, and his diagnosis was confirmed through imaging, showing bowel loops under the diaphragm.
- The case underscores the need for careful diagnosis and collaboration between medical and surgical teams to properly manage Chilaiditi syndrome and distinguish it from other abdominal emergencies.
