Endoscopy for the initial suspicion of vascular rings in tracheoesophageal compressions: correlation with surgical findings.

abstract：:Our purpose was to identify and further characterize physiologic mechanisms relevant to autoresuscitation from hypoxic apnea in infants dying suddenly and unexpectedly. We studied cardiorespiratory recordings of 24 infants (age range, 0.8-21 months) who died suddenly while being monitored at home. These recordings wer...
