Abstract
Over the past decades the esophageal atresia (EA) has represented the greatest challenging malformation encountered by the pediatric surgeon. Since then, there have been considerable advancements in the treatment of EA. In this paper the experience at the "Anna Meyer Children's Hospital of Florence" in regards to the surgical treatment of the EA from 1955 to present day is reported, so that the analysis of the various medical and surgical choices followed by the authors and their predecessors in this long period, can be an important learning tool for the EA management.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
