title: [Hiatal hernia following T.E.F. repair (author's transl)].
abstract: Hiatal hernia and/or gastroesophageal reflux are studied in 182 pediatric patients after surgical correction of esophageal atresia. Clinical and radiological aspects, along with postoperative complications, are reviewed. Special stress is given to late stenosis that does not cure with conventional treatment and are originated by undiagnosed reflux. Hiatal disfunction screening is proposed in following up patients of esophageal atresia in avoidance of disphagic and aspirative complications.
