Genç Bir Hastada Chilaiditi Sendromu

Abstract

Chiladiti sendromu, kolonun hepatodiafragmatik interpozisyonu olup, normal populasyonda nadir görülen bir radyolojik bulgudur. Genellikle de yetişkin, kronik akciğer hastası, astenik kişiler ile multipar bayanlarda daha sık görülmektedir. Barsak ansları diafram ve karaciğer arasında yerleşmiş olup vakaların çoğuna tesadüfen tanı konmaktadır. Klinik olarak hafif abdominal ağrı, intestinal obstrüksiyon, göğüs ağrısı, nefes darlığı gibi semptomlarla ortaya çıkabilir. Çalışmamızda 26 yaşında iki aydır karın ağrısı bulunan kadın bir olguyu sunmayı amaçladık. Semptomatik tedavi ile şikayetleri geçen olgu Chilaiditi sendromu olarak değerlendirildi. Bu sendromun nadir görülmesi ve tipik radyolojik bulgular nedeniyle vakayı sunmayı amaçladık.

Chilaiditi Syndrome in a Young Patient

Abstract

Chilaiditi syndrome, an hepatodiaphragmatic interposition of the colon, is a rare radiological finding in the normal population.Chilaiditi syndrome is more frequently seen in adults, people with chronic lung disease, multiparous women and asthenic people. Bowel loops are located between the diaphragm and liver and most of the cases are diagnosed incidentally. Clinically, mild abdominal pain, intestinal obstruction, chest pain, symptoms such as shortness of breath may occur. In this study we aimed to present a 26 year old woman with abdominal pain of two months duration. The patient’s complaint was relieved with symptomatic treatment, and assessed as Chilaiditi syndrome. Because of the rarity of this syndrome, and the typical radiological findings, we aimed to present this case
