Esophageal atresia with tracheo-esophageal fistula
Updates to Study Attributes
ET tube is above the carina. Both the UAC and UVC lines are too high, the UAC tip is projected over the left common carotid and the UVC tip at T6, over the right atrium.
The baby is preterm, as indicated by reduced subcutaneous fat and lack of humeral epiphysis ossification.
The lungs are of low volume with bilateral, generalised increased opacification, consistent with RDS.
Within the upper mediastinum is a prominent gas-filled structure in the midline. Features are of oesophageal atrsiaatresia, but since there is gas withinin the stomach and small bowel, there must be a connection between the trachealtrachea and distal oesophagus.
