What is Embryology and Definition of TEF about?
Tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) is a congenital anomaly resulting from improper separation of the trachea and esophagus, leading to abnormal connections. Common types include esophageal atresia with distal TEF and isolated (H-Type) TEF, with clinical presentations such as feeding difficulties and excessive salivation in neonates. Management involves immediate airway protection, nutritional support, and surgical repair, with long-term outcomes improving with early intervention and multidisciplinary care.
