Abstract
Oesophageal duplication is a rare form of digestive duplication. This congenital malformation can be asymptomatic or manifest itself through respiratory signs due to airway compression. We report 2 cases of oesophageal duplication discovered in the neonatal period.In both cases, symptoms were dominated by respiratory distress and vomiting. Diagnosis was confirmed by oesophageal contrast X-rays, which revealed a total tubular form in the 1st case and a cystic form in the 2nd case.Oesophageal duplication is a rare abnormality of benign nature, which can be revealed in neonatal period by a noisy compression picture. Diagnosis of this anomaly should trigger a search for other digestive duplications, as well as associated malformations, in particular vertebral.
