Characterization of esophageal motility following esophageal atresia repair using high-resolution esophageal manometry.
BACKGROUND Esophageal dysmotility, a considerable issue following esophageal atresia (EA) repair, has been reported but has not been precisely described and characterized. Using high-resolution esophageal manometry (HREM), we characterized the esophageal motility patterns in children with repaired EA and compared these patterns of dysmotility with symptomatology. METHODS HREM was performed as...
متن کاملCongenital Esophageal Stenosis Associated with Esophageal Atresia and Gasless Abdomen
SUMMARY A radiologically gasless abdomen in a neonate with EA is usually regarded as being pathognomonic of an absence of distal T.E.F. It has been estimated that up to 1.5% of patient with a distal fistula may have a radiologically gasless abdomens as a manifestation of a very small fistula plugged with mucus. In this case a contrast study via the gastrostomy demonstrated a fistula between th...
متن کاملThoracoscopic repair of esophageal atresia and tracheo-esophageal fistula.
Advancements in minimally invasive surgical techniques and instruments for neonates have allowed even the most complex neonatal procedures to be approached endoscopically. In 1998 the first successful thoracoscopic repair of an esophageal atresia was performed in a 2-month-old infant. One year later the first totally thoracoscopic repair of an atresia with distal fistula was realized. Over the ...
متن کاملHypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis Following Repair of Esophageal Atresia and Tracheo-Esophageal Fistula
Two cases of hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS) developed after a few weeks of repair of an esophageal atresia and tracheo-esophageal fistula (EA and TEF). Both cases were dealt successfully with laparoscopic pyloromyotomy.
