title: [Resolution of megaesophagus after treatment of concurrent hypothyroidism in a dog].
abstract: An adult mixbreed female dog is presented with a megaoesophagus. The treatment of a concomitant thyroïdism allowed the total regression of the megaoesophagus. A literature overview is presented, dealing with the correlation between megaoesophagus and hypothyroïdism. Diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities are discussed.
