Analysis of mortality and long-term outcomes of pediatric patients with tracheoesophageal fistula/esophageal atresia
CONCLUSION: In our study, the most common early complication was anastomotic stenosis in patients with esophageal atresia. We recommend balloon dilation in the treatment of anastomotic stenosis.Gastroesophageal reflux is the most common long-term complication. Most of these can be treated conservatively and medically. The association of low birth weight, cardiac anomalies, prematurity and VACTERL increased mortality in patients with esophageal atresia in our study.KEY WORDS: Esophageal Atresia, Morbidity, Late Period, Mortality, Tracheoesophageal Fistula.PMID:37530047 (Source: Annali Italiani di Chirurgia)
