Abstract
This study was undertaken to delineate tracheobronchial anomalies associated with congenital heart disease. From June 1995 to December 2000, 1,245 children with congenital heart disease underwent cardiac electron beam computed tomography with 3-dimensional reconstruction on an independent workstation. Tracheobronchial anomalies are strongly associated with congenital heart disease and accompanying tracheal stenosis is not uncommon. With 3-dimensional reconstruction, electron beam computed tomography provided excellent anatomic definition of the central tracheobronchial abnormalities.Entities:
