Slide tracheoplasty in infant with congenital tracheal stenosis and tracheomalacia after esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula repair

Emmanuel Le Bret et al. J Pediatr Surg. 2009 Jul.

Abstract

Slide tracheoplasty can be applied successfully to all types of long segment congenital tracheal stenosis. In case of short segment tracheal stenosis, direct resection and anastomosis is often preferred. We report a case illustrating a new side benefit of the slide tracheoplasty in a patient presenting a relatively short hypoplastic tracheal segment coexisting with tracheomalacia after EA with TEF repair.
