Patient's question:
How is esophageal atresia treated in newbornsDoctor's answer:
After the child is born, if the imaging suggests congenital esophageal atresia, then surgical treatment is necessary. Because only surgical treatment can correct this congenital developmental deformity. Of course, surgery also carries risks. You can have the local pediatric surgeon evaluate the type of esophageal atresia and the risks of the surgery. This requires consulting with a professional pediatric gastroenterologist at a provincial children's hospital for professional guidance.
