title: [Surgery in esophageal atresia. Anatomical and functional aspects].
abstract: The first successfully operated newborn with esophageal atresia dates back more than 55 years. During this period the concept of the unity of structure and function for surgical treated malformations has been retained. Primary anastomosis offers the best prerequisites. Main life threatening complications are leakage of the anastomosis, anastomotic strictures and gastroesophageal reflux. Avoiding vital complications the aim of undisturbed function can be achieved by appropriate surgical methods. The report describes own experiences over the past 20 years.
