Defective fibroblast growth factor signaling allows for nonbranching growth of the respiratory-derived fistula tract in esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2000
The fistula tract in esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula (EA-TEF) appears to arise from a trifurcation of the embryonic lung bud. Subsequently, it does not branch like the other bronchi, which also arise from the lung bud. Previous results have implied that aberrant mesenchymal-epithelial signaling in the developing foregut, possibly ...
