Romeo Bardini, MD, Valentina Radicchi, MD, Paolo Parimbelli, MD, Sara Maria Tosato, MD, Surendra Narne, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 76, Issue 1, Pages (July 2003) DOI: /S (02)

2 Fig 1 (A) Surgical view of the recurrent tracheoesophageal fistula: dehiscence of the esophageal suture and wide opening of the posterior and lateral wall of the trachea. (B) Suture of the cartilaginous aspect of the trachea and closure of the esophagus. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (02) )

3 Fig 2 (A) The Gore-Tex patch is sutured to the right side of the esophagus and to the upper esophageal sphincter. A separation between the tracheal defect and the esophageal suture is obtained. The arrow indicates the posterior part of the trachea that was left open to close spontaneously. (B) Final view: a soft drain is positioned next to the esophageal suture.
