Abstract
Partial or complete agenesis of hemidiaphragm is a rare anomaly and typically occurs in the neonatal period. Late presentation is very rare and elderly patients are asymptomatic for a long time. Partial agenesis of the hemidiaphragm is extremely rare and it was reported in only a few cases. They are usually associated with herniation of abdominal organs and are predominantly left sided. We report a case of a 70 year- old woman whose right-sided diaphragm agenesis with anteriorly displaced crus and intrathoracic herniation of kidney, liver and colon was demonstrated by multidetector computed tomography.
