A Case of Scimitar Syndrome with H-Type Tracheoesophageal Fistula and Multiple Anomalies: Diagnosis Using Electrocardiography-Gated Chest CT

Scimitar syndrome is a rare, combined abnormality of bronchopulmonary develop- ment and pulmonary vascular development characterized by an anomalous pulmo- nary venous return to the inferior vena cava. Although the scimitar syndrome has been associated with many anomalies, a tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF), especially from H-type, is extremely rare and only a few cases have been reported without de- tailed descriptions. Herein we report a rare case of scimitar syndrome with H-type TEF and multiple anomalies in a newborn infant, with a special emphasis on the im- aging features associated with the radiologic diagnosis using an electrocardiogra- phy-gated computed tomography.
