Blunt diaphragmatic lesions: Imaging findings and pitfalls

Figure 8 Computed tomography findings in blunt diaphragmatic lesions - dangling diaphragm sign. This 3 mm thick multiplanar axial reconstruction shows the free edges of a torn diaphragm as “comma-shaped” structures (arrows) which curl inward, toward the center of the abdomen. This alteration represents the so-called “dangling diaphragm sign”.
