Tracheoesophageal fistula - a complication of prolonged tracheal intubation
Tracheoesophageal fistula most commonly occurs as a complication of prolonged tracheal intubation. The incidence decreased after the use of low pressure and high volume endotracheal cuffs, but the intensive care units continue to provide such cases. The abnormal tracheoesophageal communication causes pulmonary contamination (with severe suppuration) and impossibility to feed the patient. The pr...
متن کاملTracheal stenosis complicated with tracheoesophageal fistula.
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to evaluate the results of surgical treatment in patients with simultaneous occurrence of postintubation tracheal stenosis (TS) and tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF). METHODS In the group of 51 patients with postcannulation tracheal stenosis who underwent segmental resection, TEF was identified simultaneously in five (10%) of them. The mean age of the ...
متن کاملTracheoesophageal Fistula following Endotracheal Intubation for Organophosphorus Poisoning.
Tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) is an abnormal communication between the trachea and esophagus. Iatrogenic TEF can be due to endotracheal intubation, rigid bronchoscopy or tracheostomy. Tracheostomy tube cuff volumes and pressures require constant monitoring to avoid tracheal injury. Acquired TEF which occurs after prolonged intubation, usually develops after 15-200 days of mechanical ventilati...
متن کاملTracheoesophageal Fistula and Esophageal Atresia
Incidence The incidence of congenital tracheoesophageal malformations in the U.S. is approximately one in every 4,500 births. In some areas of the world (i.e., Finland), the incidence may be as high as one in 2,440 births. Tracheoesophageal fistula and esophageal atresia affects males slightly more commonly than females (1.26:1). Although most cases of tracheoesophageal anomalies are sporadic, ...
متن کاملPost-Intubation Tracheoesophageal Fistula; A Nine-Year Experience
Introduction: Tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) is a rare condition, which could be life-threatening if diagnosed late or mismanaged. Post-intubation TEF is the most common form of acquired, non-malignant TEF and is usually associated with tracheal stenosis, which makes the treatment more challenging. Here, we present our experience of managing 21 patients with post-intubation TEF. Materials & ...
