Abstract
At chest radiography performed for recurrent pneumonia in a 3-month-old boy , an air-fluid level in the right cardiophrenic angle was found and initial ly perceived as a lung abscess. Upper gastrointestinal tract radiographs, h owever, revealed a congenital diaphragmatic hernia, which was successfully repaired.
