Figure 2 The reconstruction techniques of multidetector-row computed tomography clearly demonstrate not only inter-pouch distance but also the distal fistula. A: Coronal view of multiple planar volume reconstruction showing esophageal pouches and tracheobronchial tree; B: Oblique sagittal view of multiple planar volume reconstruction demonstrating inter-pouch distance and tracheal connection with the distal esophageal pouch; C, D: Transparency lung volume rendering showing anteroposterior (C) and sagittal projection (D) in three-dimensional anatomy of esophageal pouches and fistula in case 8 (a 5-d old male infant).
