The role of distance between upper and lower esophageal pouches to predict the possibility of delayed repair in children with isolated esophageal atresia
ConclusionBoth upper and lower pouch lengths were shorter in ER group compared to DPR group. However, pouch lengths cannot be considered as a single criterion to predict the need for ER. Large cohort of patients are needed to define the cut-off values for shortest pouch length to achieve a DPR. (Source: Pediatric Surgery International)

Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Anastomotic Stricture after Repair of Esophageal Atresia
