Article Synopsis
  • Anastomotic stricture (AS) is a common complication after esophageal atresia (EA) repair, and a study was conducted using data from the Turkish Esophageal Atresia Registry to identify risk factors for its development.
  • The research included 713 patients from 2015 to 2021, finding that 20.19% developed AS, with significant factors like being a term baby, having a birth weight over 2,500g, experiencing gastroesophageal reflux (GER), and having a recurrent tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF).
  • The study concluded that these risk factors are critical for understanding AS development in EA patients, particularly within their first year of life, and emphasized the importance of

Objective: Surgeons observed that the outcomes after the same repair technique in the same type of hypospadias performed by the same surgeon may be different. There may be some indeterminate factors that influence the results such as subclinical inflammation. Our study evaluated the predictor values of inflammatory hematologic parameters on the complications after hypospadias repair.

Objectives: Postoperative ventilatory strategies in patients with esophageal atresia (EA) and tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) may have an impact on early postoperative complications. Our national Esophageal Atresia Registry was evaluated to define a possible relationship between the type and duration of respiratory support on postoperative complications and outcome.

Study Design: Among the data registered by 31 centers between 2015 and 2021, patients with esophago-esophageal anastomosis (EEA)/tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) were divided into two groups; invasive ventilatory support (IV) and noninvasive ventilatory support and/or oxygen support (NIV-OS).

Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare lung disorder in which surfactant-derived lipoproteins accumulate excessively within pulmonary alveoli, causing severe respiratory distress. It is essential to gain a better understanding of the signs to clinically diagnose PAP and include PAP among the differential diagnoses of interstitial pulmonary diseases or other diseases with similar manifestations. We describe a 2.

Background: The major influencing factors for complications during hypospadias repair are the original location of the meatus, previous urethral surgery, surgical technique, and surgeon’s experience. While the effect of the technique of regional analgesia on complication rates has been considered in some studies, this issue remains controversial.

Aims: To determine the effect of caudal block and penile block on complication rates of hypospadias repair in patients with subcoronal hypospadias.
