Beyond well-known malformations, including tracheo-esophageal fistula and laryngo-tracheo-esophageal cleft, rarer anomalies have also been reported, including communicating bronchopulmonary foregut malformations and tracheal atresia. Herein, we describe a case of what we have called “esophageal trachea,” which, to our knowledge, has yet to be reported. A full-term neonate was born in our institution presenting with a foregut malformation involving both the middle esophagus and the distal trachea, which were found to be longitudinally merged into a common segment, 3 cm in length, located just above the carina and consisted of esophageal tissue without cartilaginous rings. At birth, the esophagus and trachea were surgically separated via right thoracotomy, the common segment kept on the tracheal side only, creating a residual long-gap esophageal atresia. T...

Four types of CBPFMs have been described, none of those contemplating a complete communication between the distal trachea and esophagus. Case Report This study reports a case of a full-term neonate presenting with a VACTERL association and a tracheoesophageal malformation characterized by the presence of a long common duct including both the middle esophagus and distal trachea, which consists in esophageal tissue, without any cartilaginous rings 3–4 cm above the carina. A few days after birth, the esophagus and trachea have been surgically separated, keeping the common duct on the tracheal side and creating a residual long-gap esophageal atresia (LGEA). The resulting severe tracheomalacia has been simultaneously treated by posterior splinting using an autologous pericardium patch, as well a...

Grade 2‐3 esophageal varices, red signs, and gastric varices are well‐known risk factors. However, the involvement of hemostatic factors remains controversial because of the rebalanced state of coagulation during cirrhosis.

En une seule seance, l’atelectasie a pu etre levee.

Technical considerations, normal anatomy, congenital and acquired pathology of the duodenum, and the advantages and limitations of US are discussed and illustrated in this review.

Materiels et methodes Lors de l’echographie d’evaluation hepatique de routine et en l’absence de douleur abdominale, l’appendice ileo-caecal de 78 patients (âge 2 semaines a 41 ans, moyenne 14 ans et 2 mois) atteints de mucoviscidose a ete recherche. Le calibre antero-posterieur de l’appendice est mesure en coupe transversale suivant l’axe antero-posterieur. Resultats L’appendice ileo-caecal a ete visualise chez 66 patients (85 %) des cas. Chez 44 de ces 66 patients (67 %), le calibre de l’appendice depassait 6 mm (calibre moyen : 7,1 ± 2,3 mm), critere le plus communement admis pour le diagnostic echographique d’appendicite aigue. Le calibre moyen chez les patients pancreatiques suffisants (5,3 ± 1,8 mm) etait significativement plus petit (p = 0,006) que chez les patients necessitant une substitution enzymatique (7,4 ± 2,3 mm). Neanmoins, 40 % des patients pancreatiques suffisants (4/10) presentaient un calibre appendiculaire superieur a 6 mm pour 71 % (40/56) de patients sous substitution enzymatique. Conclusion Chez le patient atteint de mucoviscidose, le calibre de l’appendice ileo-caecal ne peut etre considere comme un critere d’appendicite aigue.

Materiels et methodes Analyse retrospective des OO reseques chirurgicalement dans une serie consecutive d’OO traites entre 1997 et 2007 par thermo-coagulation percutanee ou resection chirurgicale. Resultats Soixante-huit OO (48 hommes, 20 femmes ; âge moyen 21,1 ans) ont ete traites entre 1997 et 2007 (29 femurs, 13 vertebres, 8 tibias, 9 extremites, 9 autres). Douze resections chirurgicales ont ete realisees (7 vertebres, 5 extremites). Entre 1997 et 2001, 6 vertebres et 2 extremites ont ete operees. Entre 2002 et 2007, 1 vertebre, 2 extremites et 1 femur ont ete operes. Conclusion Les indications residuelles de la resection chirurgicale des OO ont evolue. Les localisations rachidiennes tendent a etre traitees par electrocoagulation. Le traitement des rares OO tres peripheriques reste parfois chirurgical suite aux difficultes de positionnement et au risque de necrose cutanee en cas de thermo-coagulation.

Hernias involving a defect of the broad ligament of the uterus are particularly uncommon. We report a case successfully diagnosed by spiral CT with multiaxial reconstruction.
