Congenital tracheal stenosis with associated cardiopulmonary anomalies: report of two cases with a review of the literature.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Gastro-esophageal reflux (GOR) may contribute to lung disease in children with cystic fibrosis (CF). There is conflicting evidence regarding the effect of chest physiotherapy (CPT) in the head-down position on GOR. Furthermore, there is currently no evidence on the impact of physiotherapy on GOR as assessed ...
