摘要
In patients with esophageal atresia (EA) and distal tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) Gross type C and D, escape of ventilatory gases through the TEF exposes the stomach to gaseous distension with the risk of respiratory distress and gastric perforation. In seven patients with EA, Gross type C, primary esophagoesophagostomy was planned within the first 2 days of life. After induction of anesthesia by mask, a rigid ventilation bronchoscope was inserted into the trachea and the TEF was cannulated with a catheter that was pushed down to the stomach. After removal of the endoscope, the patient was intubated beside or over the inserted catheter. Until division and closure of the TEE continuous suction over the catheter prevented gaseous gastric distension. Intubation of a distal TEF in patients with Gross type C and D EA can easily be combined with routine preoperative bronchoscopy, and is a safe and effective method to decompress a distended stomach and prevent respiratory distress and gastric perforation during controlled ventilation.
