Abstract:
Communicating bronchopulmonary foregut malformations are rare tracheobronchial anomalies characterized by a fistula between an isolated portion of respiratory tissue and the esophagus or stomach. We describe a case of CBFM in which chest radiography revealed total haziness in the right lung field. The diagnosis was confirmed by esophagography.
