ABSTRACT
The aim of this study is to analyze the outcomes of the esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula over the last 2 decades. The records of 51 patients born between 1987 and 2006 were reviewed. Twenty-seven patients were male. Mean values of the age, gestational age and birth weight were 2.9 days, 296 days and 2.7kg, respectively. All patients had Gross type C anomalies. Thirty-one patients (60.7 %) had one or more associated congenital anomalies and the most common anomaly was cardiac malformation. In 48 cases, primary anastomosis was done and staged operation was done in one case. Circular myotomies in the proximal esophagus were performed in 9 cases. Postoperative complication developed in 26 cases (54 %) pulmonary complication in 12 cases, anastomotic leakage in 10 and anastomotic stricture in 10, recurrent trachoesophageal fistula in one and tracheomalasia in 2 cases. Reoperation was carried out in 2 patients with anastomotic leaks, the remaining leaks were managed non operatively. Three of the strictures were reoperated upon and the others were successfully managed by balloon dilatations. Overall mortality rate was 15.6 %. Mortality rate of the second 10 years (8 %) period decreased significantly compared to that of the first 10 years (23 %) period.
