Figure 1 Contrast swallow examination on day nine post injury.
A: Contrast swallow study performed 9 d post injury, already confirming early long-segment stricturing of the oesophagus; B: Fluoroscopic study during endoscopy performed 4 wk post injury, showing high-grade, long-segment oesophageal stricturing.
Figure 2 Computed tomography angiogram images confirming the site of the proximal aorto-oesophageal fistula (arrows).
A: Coronal image; B: Axial image.
Figure 3 Chest X-ray.
A: Chest X-ray post aortic endovascular repair, showing aortic stent-graft, multiple overlapping stents in the oesophagus and white-out of the left lung, caused by left main bronchus compression by the oesophageal stents; B: Chest X-ray immediately post-operative after retrosternal gastric pull-up and removal of oesophageal stents showing good left lung re-expansion.
