In one caseneedling of the chest resulted in the aspiration of brand\- and watertiiat had recently been given to the patient. Large basic cavities would hardly be mistaken for hernia if sufficientattention be given to the history and the physical signs. Radiographswould show extensive lung involvement surrounding the air space andan unbroken diaphragm line would lie below the lesion. Subphrenic pyopneumothorax usually follows perforation of a gastric PLATE XII. June 26, 1911. Case, diaphragmatic hernia, with the stereoscopic radiographs made of patientin the vertical position, the sternum next to the x-ray plate, care being taken to avoid any rotationof the spine on its long axis. The central focus corresponds to the level of the seventh dorsal vertebra. We are viewing the thorax through from behind, therefore the right side of the print represents theright side of the thorax. These prints are fac-simile reproductions of the original plates. Note the position and outline of the pericardial shadow. The heart inclines strongly toward theright, its right border extending a greater distance to the right of the midsternal line than does theleft border to the left of the spine. Both hiluses are abnormally dense, the left being markedly enlarged. Both apices are clear, andthe pulmonary tissue is normal in all three right lobes and in the upper left lobe.
