Thoracoscopic Surgery in Infants and Children

European Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2005
Numerous investigators have shown that video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) can be safely used for specific conditions of newborns, infants, and children.

The first thoracoscopic repair of EA was performed by Rothenberg and Lobe in Berlin in 1999 just prior to an IPEG meeting. Since that time, the largest report describing the use of thoracoscopy for EA/TEF repair came in 2005 with a
