Does two-Stage Thoracoscopic Repair of Long-Gap Esophageal Atresia Using Internal Traction be Safe and Feasible?
Two-stage thoracoscopic repair for esophageal atresia involving a long gap or vascular ring is a safe and feasible procedure; however, we must develop methods for treating minor anastomotic complications and GER due to esophageal traction in future.
Reduced duration of desensitization in AAs from 2K1C may cause vessels to be sensitized longer and increase vasoconstriction. The present study demonstrates that Ado does not augment ANG II-induced contractions in AAs from 2K1C as in normotensive rats, possibly because of a reduced period of desensitization.
