Abstract

We report a case of a 23-year-old woman who underwent antethoracic colonic esophagoplasty at age 3 years 10 months for failed intrathoracic correction of tracheoesophageal fistula and esophageal atresia. The appearance of this rarely performed procedure is shown with barium swallow and computed tomography.
