    Author: Nakamura H, Kanazawa Y, Hayano M, Mimasu S.
    Journal: Arch Dis Child; 1981 Jan; 56(1):71-2. PubMed ID: 7469457.
    Abstract:
    A newborn infant with spontaneous oesophageal rupture associated with duodenal atresia is described. The diagnosis was established by the pattern of hydropneumothorax on the chest x-ray film and by the aspiration of gastric juice by thoracocentesis. Necropsy showed a tear, which extended from the oesophagogastric junction to the upper portion of the stomach.
