Esophageal repetitive deformity

Esophageal duplication means that the side attached to the wall of the esophagus has the same tissue shape as a part of the digestive tract and has a spherical or tubular cavity structure. It is often considered a foregut cyst, which accounts for about 30% of infantile mediastinal masses, and is usually located in the right posterior mediastinum. Some cases have deformities of the cervical spine or thoracic spine, and the masses have attachments that are connected to the dura mater, which is called chordal fissure syndrome. At this time, repeated deformities are called neural tube gastrointestinal cysts. Because the clinical symptoms of children are complicated and the condition changes greatly, it is easy to delay the diagnosis and treatment and cause adverse consequences.
