Treatment courses and outcomes of oesophageal atresia in patients with trisomy 18: a case series of 271 patients from a nationwide database in Japan
Conclusion
This study provides information that will aid the clinical decision-making process for patients with oesophageal atresia and trisomy 18. Radical surgery may be a safe and feasible treatment option. (Source: Archives of Disease in Childhood - Fetal and Neonatal Edition)

Tracheoesophageal Fistula With Esophageal Atresia: A Case Series
We present a case series of two neonates diagnosed with EA/TEF, type "C" and type "E," born at low-acuity centers, who required transport to a tertiary center for surgical support. The pathophysiology as well as types of TEFs, symptomology, stabilization goals, corrective treatment, and long-term implications will be examined. Finally, the educational needs of parents and caregivers will be discussed.PMID:38599775 | DOI:10.1891/NN-2023-0051 (Source: Neonatal Network)

Endoscopic findings in children born with oesophageal atresia in an academic unit in South Africa
CONCLUSION: All patients with a clinical indication for an endoscopy had abnormal clinical or histological findings, thus concurring with the literature in highlighting the need for regular endoscopy. We recommend regular clinical follow-up and endoscopic surveillance if clinically indicated for children born with OA.PMID:38568125 (Source: South African Journal of Surgery)
