Oesophago-tracheal fistula due to oesophageal cancer and achalasic megaesophagus.

Computed tomography showed the presence of megaesophagus (Fig. 1), mediastinal involvement and an oesophagotracheal fistula (Fig. 2).

متن کاملCongenital broncho-oesophageal fistula associated with tracheal agenesis.
A male infant was born after 37 weeks of an uncomplicated fourth pregnancy to a 21-year-old woman whose previous obstetric history included one abortion and one stillbirth. The infant was delivered by spontaneous breech and did not breathe or cry at birth. He was "intubated" and intermittent positive-pressure respiration was given, but spontaneous respiration was never established. The initial ...

Diagnosis requires recognition of clinical signs in newborns like failure of endotracheal intubation, respiratory distress with absent air entry over both side of chest and inaudible cry. We describe a TA Floyd Type I with a Tracheo-Oesophageal Fistula (TOF) without other congenital malformations.

The fistula was closed and primary oesophageal anastomosis was performed. Franklin estimated the occur...
