Background: Tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) is a congenital anomaly characterized by interruptions in esophageal continuity with or without fistulous communication to the trachea. Anesthetic management during TEF repair is challenging because of the difficulty of perioperative airway management. It is important to determine the appropriate position of the endotracheal tube (ETT) for proper ventilation and to prevent excessive gastric dilatation.

This case report documents a rare and unique presentation of an oropharyngeal duplication cyst and subsequent neonatal airway management. A one-day-old premature female presented with postpartum respiratory distress requiring emergent intubation secondary to an oropharyngeal mass of the left tongue. After being stabilized and transferred to an academic center, imaging revealed a cystic lesion that was then marsupialized and drained by the otolaryngology team.

A one-day-old girl was brought to the OR for the repair of a type C esophageal atresia (EA) [EA with tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF)]. Rigid bronchoscopy was performed to locate the fistula, and it revealed a severe long-segment tracheal stenosis. Therefore, the airway could not have been secured past the fistula using normal-sized endotracheal tubes (ETTs).

Introduction: Neuroblastoma (NB), Hirschsprung disease (HSCR), Congenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome (CCHS), clinically referred as the NB-HSCR-CCHS cluster, are genetic disorders linked to mutations in the gene on chromosome 4p12.
Specific Aim: The specific aim of this project is to define the gene mutations as the genomic basis for the clinical manifestations of the NB-HSCR-CCHS cluster.
Patient: A one day old male patient presented to the Jagiellonian University Medical College (JUMC), American Children Hospital, neonatal Intensive Care Unit (ICU) due to abdominal distention, vomiting, and severe apneic episodes.
