Congenital High Airway Obstruction – Case Report with Imaging Features
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 11
Abstract
Congenital high airway obstruction syndrome (CHAOS) is a near fatal condition of multifactorial inheritance, due to the obstruction of the fetal upper airways, which may be partial or complete in which the fetus has a dilated trachea, enlarged echogenic lungs, an inverted or flattened diaphragm, and ascites. Prenatal recognition of the disease is quite important due to the recently described management options We report here a case of CHAOS due to laryngeal atresia diagnosed by antenatal ultrasonography at 19 weeks of gestation. We also briefly review the relevant literature with the associated management options.
