Active clinical trials for "Esophageal Atresia"

Observational longitudinal study in children operated at birth on diaphragmatic hernia and/or oesophageal atresia : assessment of lung function parameters; assessment of quality of life and cognitive development; assessment of stress parenting and strategies of adaptation.

Esophageal atresia is a rare but severe malformation, and it requires early surgery. Coloesophagoplasty is surgical repair of the esophageal with an isoperistaltic transverse colon graft. In the postoperative period after coloesophagoplasty children require careful monitoring of fluid balance, because clinically significant fluid overload can lead to dysfunction of various organs and systems.

The purpose of this prospective cohort study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) to perform routine thoracoscopic repair for elective esophageal atresia type C

Right thoracotomy, conventional approach to esophageal atresia repair, leads to up to 60% radiological chest wall sequelae anomalies. The impact of these anomalies on the patient's respiratory function remains unknown. Minimally invasive thoracic surgery considerably reduces this rate. The primary objective of this study is to assess the occurrence of restrictive lung disease in patients with type III esophageal atresia depending on the type of surgical approach (Conventional or minimally invasive). The primary endpoint will be he occurrence of restrictive lung disease , objectified by pulmonary function tests (PFTs), carried out according to the current national guidelines (PNDS = protocole national de diagnostic et de soins).
