Respiratory Complications of Operated Esophageal Atresia in Children

University Hospital, Strasbourg, France67 enrolled

Overview

The respiratory complications of esophageal atresia have already been identified. They are mainly related to tracheomalacia linked to the esophageal malformation, and are aggravated by frequently associated gastroesophageal reflux. In this context, symptoms of asthma (or bronchial hyperreactivity) occur more frequently than in the general population and persist into adulthood. Their pathogenesis is still poorly understood and is the subject of much discussion. The therapeutic management of these respiratory complications, poorly codified, remains very heterogeneous from one center to another. In France, the summary of knowledge is updated by the Reference Center for chronic and malformative diseases of the esophagus.
