Notes: Abstract This report describes the clinical and radiographic features of three patients with achalasia who developed acute upper airway obstruction secondary to dilatation of the esophagus. Computed tomography was especially useful in confirming the diagnoses in two cases. Standard radiographs of the cervical area demonstrated obstruction of the larynx in the third case. In all cases, relief of respiratory distress was achieved by decompression of the esophagus.
