Traumatic disruption of the diaphragm on plain film and CT

Traumatic disruption of the left hemidiaphragm is shown on the plain chest film and computed tomography (CT) of the chest. The anteroposterior view of the chest (A) shows the herniated stomach. The course of the nasogastric tube is aberrant with its tip (arrowhead) positioned cranially. In the CT scan (B), the tip of the nasogastric tube (arrowhead) is within the abnormally positioned stomach (arrows), which is filled with food and fluid.
