The "foamy" esophagus: a radiographic sign of Candida esophagitis.
AJR. American Journal of Roentgenology 2000 April
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to describe the radiographic features of the "foamy" esophagus, a new sign of Candida esophagitis seen on double-contrast esophagography, in six patients.
CONCLUSION: The foamy esophagus was characterized by innumerable tiny (1-3 mm), round lucencies (bubbles) that intermingled with the barium suspension along the top of the barium column, producing a layer of foam. Candida esophagitis should be strongly suspected when a foamy esophagus is detected on double-contrast esophagography, particularly in patients with underlying esophageal involvement by scleroderma.
