Fig. 2. —Midsternal stripe sign is visualized in 61-year-old man after
median sternotomy and coronary artery bypass surgery. Coned-down radiograph of
mediastinum from portable chest radiograph reveals midsternal radiolucency
(paired arrows) measuring slightly less than 3 mm at greatest width.
Sternal wires show normal alignment in vertical row with no significant
displacement. (This radiograph of patient in study cohort was not one of
images reviewed for study because it was obtained after sternal rewiring for
dehiscence; however, it was selected for illustrative purposes because of
highly visible stripe and sutures.)
