Iu L Doroshevskiĭ, and Iu V Matveev

The anatomical structure of the upper and lower segments of the esophagus and tracheoesophageal fistula in esophageal atresia in newborn in newborn infants conditions the clinical picture, character of surgical intervention and postoperative course. The gravity of pneumonic changes in the lung is dependent not only on terms of child's admission, but also on the width of esophagotracheal fistula, while bifurcation fistulas, sometimes, cause diagnostic erros.
