  • Title: Neonatal Tracheal and Intracardiac Repair in a High-Risk Premature Infant Requiring Preoperative ECMO Transport.

    Abstract:
    Congenital tracheal stenosis is an uncommon malformation that portends a poor outcome in children who are symptomatic in the neonatal period. Over time, the management of significant tracheal disease has been consolidated at high-volume centers, and increasingly complex patients have undergone surgical repair. We present a premature newborn boy who was diagnosed with critical multi-level airway and cardiac disease who decompensated at a remote site, requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support for transport. He underwent a complete repair including a slide tracheoplasty and was successfully discharged home, with no residual stenosis at follow-up.
