ABSTRACT
A four month old, female infant presented with acute onset respiratory distress and persistent, non-bilious vomiting for one day. The initial chest radiograph showed two large, fluid filled structures in the right hemi thorax. An upper GI contrast study showed right intrathoracic stomach with hold-up of barium in the pylorus. A diagnosis of congenital right intra-thoracic stomach with organo-axial torsion was made and patient underwent laparotomy and repair of the hiatal defect. The child is asymptomatic on follow up. The case is reported for unusual symptomatic presentation on early infancy.
