Background: Preschool asthma/recurrent wheeze is a heterogeneous condition. Different clinical phenotypes have been described, including episodic viral wheeze (EVW), severe intermittent wheeze (SIW), and multiple-trigger wheeze (MTW).

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate intrathoracic abnormalities in children with oesophageal atresia using computed tomography (CT).
- Researchers reviewed CT scans of 48 out of 234 patients, discovering several unexpected thoracic malformations and confirming known issues.
- The findings suggest that these intrathoracic anomalies are common in patients with oesophageal atresia, highlighting the importance of using contrast-enhanced chest CT for those with ongoing respiratory issues.
