Cardiovascular Anomalies Associated With Esophageal Atresia: A 23-Year Single-Center Experience
Cardiac anomalies excluding PDA and PFO occurred in 42.5% of EA patients. ASD and VSD were the most common findings. Syndromic and female patients had higher rates of cardiac anomalies and cardiac interventions. These results emphasize the need for thorough preoperative cardiac evaluation and multidisciplinary management in EA patients.
