Abstract:
:The authors report a series of eight cases of isolated tracheoesophageal fistula without esophageal atresia (or an H type fistula), treated in three pediatric ENT departments. This is a rare malformation whose diagnosis requires investigation for associated anomalies. The clinical signs are mainly respiratory but also digestive and the symptomatology can be severe. The diagnosis can be made with a barium swallow combined with cineradiography, but a tracheoesophageal endoscopy remains the investigation of choice. The treatment is surgical. In most cases, the fistula is accessible by a right or left cervicotomy, depending on the surgeon's practice, with a much lower postoperative morbidity as compared to a thoracotomy. The postoperative management was straightforward in most of our cases. We discuss the role of gastro-esophageal reflux with respect to postoperative morbidity as well as systematic treatment for reflux peri-operatively. The pros and cons of the various surgical approaches are also discussed.
