Radiology

Water soluble contrast study: stents in both the left (green) and right (blue) main bronchi. Contrast passes from the narrowed oesophagus into the left main bronchus (red), and then up into the trachea and right main bronchus. Original problem was a mediastinal mass which led to stents being placed to maintain the airways. Subsequently, the mass has invaded the oesophagus and led to a fistula.
