Summary:

Description	Radiopaedia case ID: 41890 Image ID: 18402726 Image stack position: 6/13 Plane projection: Frontal Study findings: On barium swallow, there is demonstration of a small communication between the dilated esophagus and left mainstem bronchus with pooling of contrast in the left lower lobe bronchus. Modality: Barium System: Gastrointestinal Findings: Cystic bronchiectasis, some with mucous plugging, fibrosis, cicatricial atelectasis and minimal calcifications are demonstrated in the lingula of the left upper lobe and basal segments of the left lower lobe. There are reticulonodular and patchy ground glass opacities in the left lower lobe and lingula . In addition, there are minimal patchy ground glass opacities in the posterior segment of the right upper lobe likely due to ongoing infection. The entire esophagus is markedly dilated. There is a 2.0-mm communication between the left mainstem bronchus and dilated esophagus. Findings are consistent with broncho-esophageal fistula.
