Recurrent Tracheoesophageal Fistula

European Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2013
Repair of recurrent tracheoesophageal fistulas (rTEFs) remains a technically challenging endeavor. Although considered the gold standard, open surgical repair is associated with significant morbidity and rates of recurrence. Over the last 40 years, endoscopic techniques have gained popularity and been touted as a safer first line treatment. This review

Cervical tracheoesophageal fistula

The Laryngoscope, 1983
AbstractFour unusual cases of cervical tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) are presented. The incidence, diagnosis and treatment of cervical TEF are discussed.

Malignant Tracheoesophageal Fistula

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1984
Malignant tracheoesophageal fistula occurs infrequently in patients with esophageal and lung cancer. However, the occurrence of this entity is very distressing for the patient since it leads to rapid deterioration and death due to overwhelming pulmonary infection. A review of cases reported in the recent world literature is presented.

Abstract Tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) is a congenital fistula between the trachea and esophagus. Prenatal ultrasound suggests a diagnosis of TEF by findings of polyhydramnios and a small or absent fetal stomach bubble. There are five subtypes of TEF, which are determined by the location of the fistula and presence or absence of ...

Congenital proximal tracheoesophageal fistula

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1972
Abstract Proximal pouch tracheoesophageal fistulas were discovered in 13 of 170 patients (7.7%) who had esophageal atresia and/or tracheoesophageal fistula. Approximately one-third of these were discovered preoperatively, one-third intraoperatively, and the remainder during the first 10 mo postoperatively.

H-type tracheoesophageal fistula

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2001
12-day-old boy born at 33 weeks’ gestation was referred to surgery because of desaturation with nasogastric feeding. A “pull-back” esophagogram was performed that showed an H-type tracheoesophageal fistula (Fig 1). On day 13 of life, the fistula tract was isolated and divided via a right cervical approach.
