[Tubulized gastric fundus in the treatment of esophageal atresia].

When is impossible to restore the oesophageal continuity in oesophageal atresia (EA), the stomach elevation (whether tubulized or complete) and colon interposition are the most accomplished techniques, usually from the age of six month, in different steps and with the result of a high mortality, prolonged hospitalizations and high familial and economical cost. From a total of 34 EA diagnosed in an eleven years period, we had treated three children, tubulizing the gastric fundus with mechanical sutures in continuity with the distal oesophageal end in neonatal period. The procedure is done with preservation of the distal esophageal end in continuity with the tubuliced gastric fundus with mecanichal staplers.

[Intralobar pulmonary sequestration with multiple arterial blood supply].

We report the case of a 4 years old boy, who presented at our institution with reiterative neumonia affecting left basal lobe. Anomalous vascular appearance was detected in the chest x-ray. With the suspicion of pulmonary sequestration we carried on Digital Intravenous Angiography by Substraction (DIVAS) and aortogram.
