[Tracheal diverticulum after surgical correction of esophageal atresia. 2 cases].
Diverticule trachéal après corréction chìrurgicale de l'atrésie de l'oesophage. Etude de deux observations.
Two newborns with congenital oesophageal atresia (Gross type III) were successfully operated on during the neonatal period. The occurrence, several months later, of chronic cough, associated in one infant with impaired pulmonary ventilation, lead to the discovery of a tracheal diverticulum, on the pathway of the primitive tracheo-esophageal fistula. Surgical excision of the diverticulum was followed by complete recovery.
