· Radiology; (United States)
Bilateral choanal atresis is often associated with severe asphyxia, immediately after birth and can be the cause of death from suffocation. However, in the unilateral type, the diagnosis is often delayed until the second decade of life or even later. This communication presents a case of bilateral complete choanal atresia, reviews the clinical features, and emphasizes the role of computed tomography in making the diagnosis.
