Staged thoracoscopic internal traction approach for early repair of long-gap esophageal atresia (LGEA) with distal tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF).
Pediatr Surg Int
January 2025
Department of Pediatric Surgery, Cleveland Clinic Children's Hospital, 8950 Euclid Avenue, Mail Code R3, Cleveland, OH, 44106, USA.
Background: Long-gap esophageal atresia (LGEA) can complicate the management of esophageal atresia (EA) with or without a tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF). This series describes a short interval, staged, thoracoscopic internal traction approach for LGEA with distal TEF to manage complex anastomotic tension or an anatomically impossible esophageal anastomosis.
Methods: A retrospective review (2018-2024) was performed across four tertiary centers to identify patients with LGEA and distal TEF, managed with a staged, thoracoscopic internal traction approach.
Experience in the treatment of type C congenital esophageal atresia using a staged approach.
BMC Surg
January 2025
Department of Neonatal Surgery, National Center for Children's Health, Beijing Children Hospital, Capital Medical University, 56 Nanlishi Road, Beijing, 100045, China.
Background: In select patients with type C esophageal atresia, primary anastomosis is not appropriate and a staged approach is required. We aim to summarize our experience in the management of type C EA using a staged approach.
Methods: A retrospective chart-review of patients with type C EA admitted to Beijing Children's Hospital between July 2020 to October 2023 were conducted.
Tracheobronchopexy to Avoid Tracheostomy in Esophageal Atresia Patients With Severe Life-Threatening Tracheobronchomalacia.
J Pediatr Surg
January 2025
Division of Specialized Thoracic Care, Department of Surgery, Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital, 501 6th Ave S, St. Petersburg, FL 33701, United States.
Background: Esophageal atresia (EA) is associated with tracheobronchomalacia (TBM), which in its most severe form, causes blue spells, brief resolved unexplained events (BRUEs) that can require cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and positive pressure ventilation (PPV) or ventilator dependence, often requiring tracheostomy. We study the role of tracheobronchopexy, as an alternative to tracheostomy, in EA patients with severe life-threatening TBM.
Methods: We reviewed EA patients who underwent tracheobronchopexy for blue spells, BRUEs, and failure to wean PPV or extubate from February 2013 to September 2021 at two institutions.
The Canadian Experience With Magnetic Esophageal Anastomosis: A Report From the Canadian Consortium for Research in Pediatric Surgery Study (CanCORPS).
J Pediatr Surg
January 2025
The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Electronic address:
Objective: Magnetic anastomosis is an innovative technique for establishing esophageal continuity in infants born with esophageal atresia. Few case series featuring this technology have been published, with even fewer reports on complications. We present the entire Canadian experience with this approach.
