선천성 식도폐쇄 및 기관식도루 수술치험 2례

Early recognition, vigorous preoperative preparation, sophisticated supportive care, control of sepsis, and intensive care nursing have produced remarkably improved results in the management of esophageal atresia. Successful surgery for esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula was carried out recently. Two neonates with esophageal atresia and distal tracheoesophageal fistula were type C. Transpleural end-to-end repair was carried out after gastrostomy due to low birth weight in case I associated with ventricular septal defect. Case 2 underwent primary retropleural end-to-end repair. A simple one-layer anastomosis with the sutures passing through all layers of`the esophagus was performed in all cases.
