Anaesthesia for specialist surgery in infancy

Abstract: Common indications for neonatal surgery include inguinal hernias and hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. Less common conditions that have major implications for anaesthesia include tracheoesophageal fistula, congenital diaphragmatic hernia, exomphalos, gastroschisis and congenital lobar emphysema. The anaesthetic management of these conditions is outlined in this article.
