Presentation
Methods: All patients who had a hospital discharge with a IDC-9-CM code 7503 tracheoesophageal fistula and esophageal atresia), between January 2008 and June 2016 entered the present study. [frontiersin.org]
Clinical presentation Individuals with laryngeal lymphangioma may be asymptomatic or may present with significant airway obstruction when the lesions attain a large size. [emedicine.medscape.com]
If severe, it presents very early on in life with airway obstruction requiring immediate surgical intervention. [patient.info]
The presentation of patients with DORV is variable and dependant on the complexity of the malformation. [omicsonline.org]
Obviously, if the original obstruction is severe, the child will present early and with more severe symptoms, including presentation of stridor in the delivery room (SUMMARY) (SUMMARY). [virtualpediatrichospital.org]
Workup

Then we will meet with you and your family to discuss the results and outline the best treatment options. Our areas of innovation for esophageal atresia Until recently, EA was a condition with no truly satisfactory treatment options. [childrenshospital.org]

Prognosis
Overall, tracheal agenesis has a very poor prognosis, even though cases of surviving patients with experimental therapies have been reported in the literature ([ 18 ] Hiyama, [ 19 ] Soh, [ 20 ] Tazuke). [bmcpediatr.biomedcentral.com]
Surfactant production by type II pneumocytes begins around week 20-22, but overall is not enough to prevent airway collapse (atelactstasis) Premature infants born at this stage have a VERY POOR prognosis Terminal sac period (24 weeks – birth) The overall [web.duke.edu]
Associated anomalies A careful clinical examination should be conducted in order to rule out associated abnormalities, which are mainly responsible for the medium- and long-term prognosis in these patients. 4 Their unequal distribution between EA patients [dovepress.com]
Prognosis Surgery to correct esophageal atresia is usually successful, with survival rates close to 100 percent in otherwise healthy infants after the condition is corrected. [healthofchildren.com]
The prognosis for individuals with this disorder is poor. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Etiology
Etiology Although there is no consensus as to the etiology of laryngomalacia, several theories have been proposed. [entokey.com]
Etiology and pathogenesis Lymphangiomas originate from lymphatic vessel malformations. [emedicine.medscape.com]
This article reviews the etiology of stridor in children and suggests an approach to evaluating and managing the problem. Etiology and Clinical Manifestations Causes of stridor in children according to the site of obstruction are listed in Table 1. [aafp.org]
The etiology is unknown, although sporadic, genetic (3) and vascular causes (4) have all been proposed. [fetalultrasound.com]
Epidemiology
Congenital Laryngeal Webs Epidemiology Laryngeal webs are rare congenital anomalies of the larynx. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Pathophysiology
The causes of subglottic stenosis may be divided into congenital or acquired lesions, and these will be considered separately because of the differences in pathophysiology, evaluation, and treatment of each. [virtualpediatrichospital.org]
