Abstract
Chilaiditi syndrome is a radiological manifestation of a large bowel interposition between the liver and right hemidiaphragm that associated with gastrointestinal symptoms, We report a case of 50-year-old woman with no particular pathological history who presented to the emergency room with a presentation of pyloric stenosis, The presence of Chilaiditi signs can be caused by an abnormality of either liver, colon or right hemidiaphragm that leads to sub-diaphragmatic space enlargement or intestinal hypermobility. Computed tomography imaging is the best diagnostic modality. Conservative treatment is the first line in management.
