Anatomy and embryology of tracheo-esophageal fistula [PDF]
Anomalies in tracheo-esophageal development result in a spectrum of congenital malformations ranging from, most commonly, esophageal atresia with or without trachea-esophageal fistula (EA+/-TEF) to esophageal web, duplication, stricture, tracheomalacia and tracheal agenesis. Despite the relative frequency of EA, however, the underlying etiology remains

Acquired tracheo-esophageal fistula in the pediatric population
International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology, 1998Acquired tracheo-esophageal fistula (TEF) in the paediatric population is a rare entity, an acquired fistula can be due to tracheotomy tubes and tracheotomy cuffs. Patients with burns are at greater risk from these tracheotomy complications. Acquired TEF can also occur due to a foreign body impaction. Prevention and early diagnosis are important.

Congenital Tracheo-Esophageal Fistula
American Journal of Diseases of Children, 1963Tracheo-esophageal fistula, the result of incomplete ontogenic separation of the trachea from the esophageal anlagen portion of the foregut, occurs in 0.04% of human newborns.1Of the reported fistulae, 70% to 80% are type III B in which the upper esophageal segment is a blind pouch usually ending at a level above the tracheal bifurcation2; the lower ...

Tracheo-Esophageal Fistula and Esophageal Atresia
Diseases of the Chest, 19601.Since the outstanding contribution by Cameron Haight in 1941 in the surgical management of tracheoesophageal fistula and esophageal atresia, the picture has changed from one of almost invariably fatal outcome, to that of a high survival rate in the surgically corrected infants.

Tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) is a rare complication after postintubation tracheal injury or esophagectomy. It is associated with significant morbidity and the risk of mortality. Contrast esophagography and direct endoscopic examination are the keys to prompt diagnosis, in addition to a high index of suspicion.

Esophageal Atresia With Tracheo-esophageal Fistula
Archives of Surgery, 1970Esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula presents a major challenge to the obstetrician, pediatrician, and pediatric surgeon. Early diagnosis and surgical treatment of this anomaly can be lifesaving and totally corrective. The technique for reconstruction of the atretic esophagus dates back to 1939 when Ladd and Leven successfully undertook ...

Tracheo-Esophageal Fistula: Surgical Repair
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1965OCCASIONALLY a troublesome fistula develops between the trachea and esophagus following total laryngectomy or reconstruction of the cervical esophagus.1This occurs at the level of the tracheostoma or in the posterior wall of the upper trachea. A cuffed tracheal tube will control the salivary leak into the trachea prior to repair of the tracheo ...

Esophageal atresia and tracheo-esophageal fistula: A review
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1999The improved survival of neonates with esophageal atresia and tracheo-esophageal fistula reflects the advancement in neonatal care and anaesthesia over the years. Chick embryo studies have given new insights in the embryopathy of esophageal atresia.

Repair of Large, Iatrogenic, Tracheo-Esophageal Fistulae
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2007Closure of large, iatrogenic, tracheo-esophageal fistulae present a formidable technical challenge. Our method of repair is presented, which describes the exposure and subsequent closure that relies on creating a new "membranous" trachea using remnant flaps of the esophageal wall of the fistula.

Tracheo-esophageal Fistula Due to Wegener's Granulomatosis
JAMA, 1965TRACHEO-ESOPHAGEAL FISTULAE are either congenital or acquired. The acquired variety may be due to malignant or nonmalignant causes, the latter being due to infection, chemicals, trauma, and esophageal diverticula.1This case report presents the first known case of tracheo-esophageal fistula due to necrotizing vasculitis. Report of a Case A 47-year-old
