Prevention of gastroesophageal reflux using Nissen fundoplication in the staged repair of esophageal atresia with distal tracheoesophageal fistula.

To prevent the reflux of gastric contents into the bronchial tree through the tracheoesophageal fistula in patients with esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula, Nissen fundoplication was performed in the first-stage repair of staged operations. After elimination of the pulmonary complication, a correction of esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula was successfully performed through the extrapleural route at the age of 16 days. Thus, because Nissen fundoplication is simple to perform and effective in preventing gastroesophageal reflux, this procedure is considered to be useful in the staged repair of esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula.[1]
