ENGLISH ABSTRACT
JOURNAL ARTICLE
[A new device for long gap esophageal atresia].
Surgery in Infancy and Childhood 1988 October
A new mechanical device is presented which approximates the two oesophageal pouches in long gap oesophageal atresia and possibly creates an anastomosis. The principle is similar to magnetic bougienage, only that purely mechanical force is employed instead. This offers several advantages: the instrument is considerably less bulky, technically simple, inexpensive, light and therefore easy to transport. Only normal electrical current is necessary. The tensile forces applied are easier to control. The child does not have to be placed inside a tube and is not restrained in its movements. The device has been experimentally tested in 6 dogs.
