    Author: Gaissert HA, Grillo HC.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 2006 Apr; 41(4):842-4. PubMed ID: 16567205.
    Abstract:
    In 3 patients, recurrent respiratory symptoms after neonatal repair of congenital tracheoesophageal fistula (Gross type C in 2, D in 1) were associated with a large tracheal remnant of the fistula termed diverticulum. Symptoms resolved after resection of the diverticulum in 1 child with airway obstruction and 1 adult with recurrent tracheoesophageal fistula.
