A case of tracheal agenesis surviving without mechanical ventilation after external esophageal stenting.

Abstract:

:Tracheal agenesis is a rare and usually lethal congenital malformation of the forgut. Although some infants can be resuscitated with an intra-esophageal intubation temporarily, long-term airway management is difficult because of the collapsing airway. We report a long-term survivor with tracheal agenesis in whom a Gortex external esophageal stent using radial traction sutures was applied to prevent the esophagus from collapsing. The patient was discharged from our hospital without mechanical ventilation or oxygen inhalation at 10 months of age. Our procedure has a potential to establish a long-term steady airway in patients with tracheal agenesis. The detail of the procedure is presented and the related literature is reviewed.
