ABSTRACT

Esophageal atresia includes a group of abnormalities that compromise the continuity of the esophagus, with or without communication with the trachea. In 7% no tracheoesophageal fistula is found, which implies a wide distance between esophageal ends, making conservation difficult and may require esophageal replacement; the ideal is to preserve the native esophagus, for which there are several techniques described today. We present the case of a patient with an initial extreme gap of 12 vertebral bodies, who underwent various esophageal elongation techniques, being successful to finally achieve gastroesophageal continuity, performed in the same hospitalization, in a second level perinatal hospital. The patient´s own esophagus is the best esophagus.
