Thoracoscopic Repair of Esophageal Atresia

Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques, 2021
Background: Esophageal atresia (EA) is a rare congenital malformation of the esophagus. Surgical treatment is required to restore the continuity of the esophagus. This can be performed through thoracotomy. However, an increasing number of hospitals is performing minimal invasive surgery (MIS). In this article, we describe the technique of thoracoscopic

Muscle Repair for Esophageal Speech

Journal of the Royal Society of Health, 1988
IT IS generally believed that satisfactory esophageal speech is only obtained in 40 to 65% of patients. We concentrated on manipulation ofthe constrictor muscle in laryngectomy as being the key to solving the problem of difficulty in esophageal speech. Thus, we have been devising ways to suture the constrictor muscles.

Thoracoscopic repair of esophageal atresia

Surgery Today, 2019
Thoracoscopic repair (TR) of esophageal atresia (EA) has been performed with increasing frequency over the last two decades, with the expectation of improved outcomes by avoiding thoracotomy. To understand the current practice and outcomes of TR of EA, we reviewed the relevant literature, including 15 case series, 7 comparative studies, and 3 meta ...

Extubation strategies after esophageal atresia repair

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2022
Early extubation following repair of esophageal atresia (EA) is desirable unless the anastomosis is under tension, in which case paralysis and post-operative ventilation may reduce the risk of anastomotic leakage. However, complications from emergency reintubations do occur with either strategy.

Esophageal function after repair of esophageal atresia

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1984
The results of this study demonstrate that there is abnormal esophageal function in patients who have undergone repair of esophageal atresia. The diagnostic tests used may be too sensitive as the abnormalities demonstrated have little clinical relevance. In addition, there was an inverse relationship between signs and symptoms of esophageal dysfunction
