Tracheoesophageal fistula and associated congenital heart disease: implications for anesthetic management and survival

Abstract: Low birth weight (<1500 g) and associated cardiac pathology were found to be independent predictors of mortality in infants undergoing surgery for TEF/EA repair. The presence of a ductal-dependent cardiac lesion further increased the risk of morbidity and mortality, in addition to necessitating special anesthesia considerations.

“…In the present study, ASD, VSD, and PDA were the most frequent anomalies in the EA/TEF patients. Mortality rates of GISM cases particularly suffering from cardiac malformations have decreased significantly with early diagnosis and treatment when compared with initially reported results (13).…”

“…Diaz ve ark. 'nın (16) 1998-2004 arasın-da TÖF/ÖA onarımı ile ilgili anestezi kayıtlarını retrospektif olarak değerlendirdikleri çalışmalarında konjenital kalp hastalığı ile birlikte TÖF/ÖA anomalisi bulunan hastalarda perioperatif mortalite oranını %23 olarak bulmuşlardır.…”

“…Secure intravenous access should be obtained, and some prefer arterial access to monitor blood pressure beat to beat and to sample the blood gases during one-lung ventilation, particularly in infants with signifi cant comorbidity. Neonates with cardiac disease have a greater incidence of critical events such as desaturation or the need for new inotropic support compared with those without cardiac disease as well as a 57 % mortality during the hospitalization for those with ductal-dependent congenital heart disease [ 87 ]. These data underscore the need for a preoperative echocardiogram to identify a possible cardiac defect in all neonates with EA/TEF and, if a heart defect is present, to discuss the need for central venous access.…”
