A radiological chronicle of the presentation and management of a long gap oesophageal atresia.

Paul Charlesworth1, Anies Mahomed.   

Abstract

Long gap oesophageal atresia is a clinically and technically challenging condition to manage. Documentation of the gap between the upper and lower pouches is critical to deciding the timing and feasibility of a primary anastamosis. Integral to this process is the role of radiology. We present a case of long gap oesophageal atresia accompanied by chronological radiography demonstrating its' staged management and highlighting some common complications.
