Abstract:
The authors showed a case of left mediastinal retraction associated with massive left lung collapse suspected after easy visualization of the heart on all scans of the anterolateral left hemithorax. In fact, the figure shows that the apex of the ventricle was visible at the level of the pleural line in the left hemithorax (usually not visible due to pulmonary air artifacts).
