Right Phrenic Nerve Palsy following Long-gap Esophageal Atresia and Tracheoesophageal Fistula Repair.

Esophageal atresia (EA) and tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) are surgically correctable congenital anomalies with reported surgical common complications such as anastomotic leaks, recurrent TEF, and esophageal strictures; however, phrenic nerve injury (PNI) is a very rare but possible complication which we have highlighted in our case report. Here, we report a baby girl operated for long-gap EA and TEF having respiratory distress and failed attempts to wean off oxygen support. Serial chest X-rays showed elevated right hemidiaphragm, whereas ultrasound thorax confirmed our diagnosis of right PNI causing diaphragmatic palsy.

Bilateral Synchronous Robotic-Assisted Adrenalectomies in a Patient of Bilateral Pheochromocytoma and Von Hippel-Lindau Disease - A Rewarding Approach.

Hypertensive crisis is rare in children. Among the rarest causes leading to this acute crisis, is bilateral adrenal tumour as a part of a syndrome, Von Hippel Lindau syndrome. The treatment is based on the excision of the adrenal tumour followed by long term surviellence.
