An 8-year-old boy presented to the emergency room with a history of acute-onset abdominal pain and distention. He denied trauma, fever, vomiting and diarrhea. He had experienced similar episodes over the preceding six months, and he had required nasogastric tube placement to decompress a distended stomach which was causing respiratory embarrassment. Examination revealed a well-developed boy with obvious abdominal distention. The lungs were clear on auscultation. No pain was elicited on deep palpation of the abdomen, and there was no guarding or rebound tenderness. There was no organomegaly. Rectal examination was unremarkable and yielded soft, formed stool which was negative for occult blood. An abdominal roentgenogram was obtained . What does the radiograph show? A. Subphrenic abscess B. Chilaiditi's sign C. Pneumoperitoneum D. Diaphragmatic hernia
