Resumo
Oesophageal choristomas are a very uncommon cause of congenital oesophageal stenosis. A high index of suspection is necessary for differential diagnosis with commoner causes of oesophageal suboclusion in childhood, mainly acquired oesophageal obstruction caused by gastroesophageal reflux. We present a case report and review the clinical, endoscopic and radiologic features of the disease and consider the need for padronization of surgical techniques to treat this condition, which is still controversial.

We present a case report and review the clinical, endoscopic and radiologic features of the disease and consider the need for padronization of surgical techniques to treat this condition, which is still controversial.
