Today's Daily Dose: Megaesophagus

Untitled Document

“The most common appearance of generalized megaesophagus is to see two diverging or parallel soft tissue lines dorsal to the trachea and caudal vena cava and ventral to the aorta. The dilated portion of the esophagus might fill with fluid or food material, especially in the case of an obstructive process such as a stricture or vascular ring anomaly.”
