thanks for your question
i completely understand your question
local hump in the diaphragm can be due to a variety of reasons like post infective tenting which occurs after healing of any infection / pleural effussion , sub diaphragmatic effusion , loculated effusion

unfolding of aorta is a normal finding in people after age of 50 yrs
