Congenital Tracheo Esophageal Fistula Repair, a Modified Technique of Anastomosis Using Pleural Flap
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Purpose: Tracheo esophageal fistula repair are usually complicated by the development of anastomotic leaks and strictures. The technique of anastomosis has long been a matter of debate. The most common method has been transverse circular esophageal anastomosis. We aim to bring down the frequency of early complications associated with conventional technique of esophageal repair by introduction of a modified repair method.

متن کاملChylothorax after Primary Repair of Esophageal Atresia with Tracheo-esophageal Fistula: Successful Management by Biological Fibrin Glue
A neonate, who had undergone primary repair of esophageal atresia with tracheo-esophageal fistula, developed right pleural effusion in the postoperative period. It was initially misdiagnosed as an anastomotic leak, but later confirmed to be chylothorax. Conservative treatment failed. Application of biological fibrin glue (sealant) on the mediastinum through a thoracotomy was curative.
متن کاملThe management of congenital oesophageal atresia and tracheo-oesophageal fistula.
Interest in the surgical treatment of congenital atresia of the oesophagus was aroused in this country by the publication of Franklin's paper (1947) in which he reported two infants with oesophageal atresia and tracheo-oesophageal fistula successfully operated on by the extra-pleural approach. The fistula was closed and primary oesophageal anastomosis was performed. Franklin estimated the occur...

متن کاملThoracoscopic repair of esophageal atresia with a distal fistula – lessons from the first 10 operations
INTRODUCTION Thoracoscopic esophageal atresia (EA) repair was first performed in 1999, but still the technique is treated as one of the most complex pediatric surgical procedures. AIM The study presents a single-center experience and learning curve of thoracoscopic repair of esophageal atresia and tracheo-esophageal (distal) fistula. MATERIAL AND METHODS From 2012 to 2014, 10 consecutive pa...
