Radiodiagnosis, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, Delhi, India.
Oesophageal duplication cysts are a subtype of foregut cysts, associated with the presence of ectopic gastric mucosa. Gastric acid secreted by this mucosa can lead to complications. We report one such unusual case of complication leading to the formation of broncho-oesophageal fistula in a duplication cyst.

Aim: This study aims to evaluate the outcomes of endoscopic sclerotherapy (EST) in the treatment of esophagogastric varices in cases of extrahepatic portal hypertension (EHPH) secondary to portal vein thrombosis.
Materials And Methods: Records of cases that underwent endoscopic sclerotherapy for esophagogastric varices between 1990 and 2022 in our clinic were retrospectively reviewed. The age, gender, symptomatology, etiology, clinical, laboratory, and radiological data of the patients, as well as treatment outcomes, were evaluated.
3dct Conduit and Oesophageal Metrics, a Valuable Method to Diagnose Post Sleeve Gastrectomy Abnormalities.
Obes Surg
November 2024
Upper GI Unit, Department of Surgery, St George Hospital, Kogarah, NSW, 2217, Australia.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how reflux after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) could be linked to specific anatomical anomalies in the stomach, using 3DCT scans for a clearer understanding of gastric structure.
- Researchers analyzed 64 post-LSG patients, focusing on factors like body mass index (BMI), symptoms, and detailed 3DCT measurements to identify abnormalities that may lead to complications.
- Results indicated that certain measurements, such as gastric volume and specific ratios, could help define post-LSG issues and potentially predict the success of follow-up surgeries.
