Abstract

A case is reported in which spiral CT was most the contributive imaging technique in the diagnosis of a postoperative intrathoracic gastric herniation. The coronal reformatted spiral CT images demonstrated very well the intrathoracic stomach located above a normally positioned left hemi-diaphragm. Compared with conventional CT, the multiplanar reconstruction capability provided by spiral CT allowed a much better delineation of the diaphragm in this case.
