[Extraperitonealization of the liver in the Chilaiditi syndrome].
The Chilaiditi syndrome or viscero hepato diaphragmatic interposition is a rare anomaly. The authors describe one case they observed. Even if it is often asymptomatic, it may manifest also by recurrent sub-occlusion or occlusion. Only a few patients need corrective surgical operation. The operation of choice is hepatic extra-peritonealization, which after replacement of the dislocated gastroenteric tract, brings the superior face of the liver again into direct contact with the related diaphragmatic dome.
