Megaesophagus is a pathology characterized by generalized esophageal dilatation and hypoperistalism, which may be of congenital, idiopathic or secondary acquired origin. The main species affected is the canine, possibly having a predilection for some breeds of dogs, but it has also been described in felines, cattle, ferrets, equines and camelids of the new world. In this work is described a case report of congenital megaesophagus in a canine, with 51 days, having a history of emesis, emaciation, underdevelopment and dyspnea after the introduction of solid feed. Anamnesis, physical examination and imaging tests were performed in order to obtain the diagnosis. After the treatment, the animal presented improvement on its clinical condition. This case was watched over the period of mandatory supervised internship at Unesp-Botucatu from October 2 to November 30, 2018.
