Gangrenous or ischemic bowel segments may have to be removed if there is associated colonic volvulus. Otherwise, colopexy may be sufficient to prevent future recurrence of symptoms. [radiopaedia.org]

Cecopexy may be adequate to eliminate the possibility of recurrence in an uncomplicated cecal volvulus, unless gangrene or perforation necessitates surgical resection. [alliedacademies.org]

Cases of volvulus generally require urgent surgical intervention with either colectomy (perforation and gangrene) or colopexy. [scielo.br]

Additional symptoms that have been reported in Chilaiditi’s syndrome include nausea, vomiting, constipation, indigestion (dyspepsia), abnormal twisting of the intestines (volvulus) causing obstruction, abdominal swelling (distention), difficulty swallowing [rarediseases.org]

The treatment for Chilaiditi's syndrome is generally conservative, including weight loss, management of aerophagia and ascites, and change in decubitus. [scielo.br]

Abdominal pain, constipation, vomiting, respiratory distress, anorexia, volvulus, and obstruction are possible presentations of this syndrome [ 3 ]. Chilaiditi syndrome can be a self-resolving or a chronic condition [ 4 ]. [alliedacademies.org]

Sputum was negative for acid fast bacilli. Chest radiograph revealed bilateral reticular pattern with hypertranslucent shadow below the right diaphragm suggestive of interposition of gut loops between right hemidiaphragm and liver [ Table/Fig-1 ]. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Chronic, recurrent episodes of abdominal pain are a common finding. Abdominal pain may be mild and come and go (intermittent). However, abdominal pain can be severe and force affected individuals to go to the emergency room. [rarediseases.org]

Chilaiditi syndrome is the anterior interposition of the colon to the liver reaching the under-surface of the right hemidiaphragm with associated upper abdominal pain; it is one of the causes of pseudopneumoperitoneum. [radiopaedia.org]

In recent years, surgical intervention has been increasingly used in order to manage symptoms of chronic, intermittent abdominal pain [ 6 ]. [alliedacademies.org]

These findings suggested Chilaiditi’s syndrome. Figure 1a and 1b: Erect chest x-ray showing air under right hemi-diaphragm. Figure 2: CT view demonstrate a loop of colon interpositioned between the liver and right hemidiaphragm. [alliedacademies.org]

Basic laboratory studies revealed a mild hyponatremia (134.3 mm/dL). Complete blood count was within normal range .Troponin T was 6761pg / ml. [alliedacademies.org]

It is important to identify Chilaiditi sign in order to prevent complications from occurring during a percutaneous transhepatic procedure or liver biopsy, particularly in cirrhotic patients, who are predisposed to development of Chilaiditi sign. [alliedacademies.org]
