| Popis: | The repair of the most common form of esophageal atresia (EA) with a tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) from the lower esophageal segment to the trachea is often a pediatric surgeon’s favorite operation. Beginning with a fatal lesion if untreated, the repair requires skill and judgment, and, as an added bonus, the long-term outlook may be essentially normal. For the majority of EA/TEF infants, the operative result is entirely satisfactory and pleases both the families and the surgeon. |
