Abstract
We report eventration of the right hemidiaphragm with isolated asymptomatic dextrogastria in a newborn. The diagnosis of this rare association could not be made clinically or by various imaging techniques. The final diagnosis could only be ascertained at laparotomy. The pathology was corrected by plication of the right hemidiaphragm, anterior fixation of the stomach, and Ladd's procedure.
