Abstract：
:From 1980 to 1994, the authors treated 65 cases of esophageal atresia (with or without tracheoesophageal fistula). Among these patients, 15 (23%) underwent pure proximal circular myotomies and five (8%) underwent both proximal and distal circular myotomies. Of the latter five cases, three were Gross type C and two were Gross type A. The gap ranged from 4.5 cm to 6.5 cm (mean, 5 cm). Surgical complications in these five patients included two anastomotic leaks (40%), one anastomotic stricture (20%), and four gastroesophageal refluxes (80%). Three patients eventually underwent fundoplication as an antireflux procedure. Mucosal outpouching was noted in all cases. The myotomy did not adversely affect the esophageal peristalsis and motility on the esophagogram. Esophageal function was similar to that of other children who had esophageal atresia without myotomy. All patients could eat food typical for their age. This limited experience suggests that distal circular myotomy might be a safe adjuvant procedure to achieve primary anastomosis in long-gap esophageal atresia.
