H-type tracheoesophageal fistula masquerading as achalasia cardia in a 13-year-old child. Journal of paediatrics and child health. [J Paediatr Child Health] Journal article

We report a case of H-type fistula in a 13-year-old girl that was detected incidentally during investigations for achalasia cardia.
