Hiatal Hernia usually presents radiographically as a well-defined, rounded, retrocardiac opacity with an air-fluid level. In many cases of hiatal hernia, there will not be an air bubble below the left hemidiaphragm. This is a relatively expected finding considering that the stomach is no longer in its usual position. One pitfall to consider is that hiatal hernias can look similar to a retrocardiac lung abscess or another cavitary lesion, but it will change in size and shape between radiographs. • 📺 Subscribe To My Channel and Get More Great Quizzes and Tutorials • / @med4vl • #FOAMrad #MedEd #radiology • Disclaimer: All the information provided by Medical Education for Visual Learners and associated videos are strictly for informational purposes only.
