RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To identify prenatal and neonatal predictors of short bowel syndrome-related intestinal failure (SBS-IF) in gastroschisis. STUDY DESIGN: This retrospective study included all patients with gastroschisis born between 2000 and 2017 who were enrolled in our home parenteral nutrition program, and all patients with gastroschisis born in our institution who survived 2 weeks, during the same time period. Prenatal ultrasound features, neonatal status, anatomic features, oral feeding, and parenteral nutrition dependency were analyzed. RESULTS: Among 180 patients, 35 required long-term parenteral nutrition (SBS-IF group) and 145 acquired full oral feeding within 6 months (oral feeding group). The mean follow-up was 7.9 years (IQR, 1.6-17.5 years) and 5.0 years (IQR, 0.1-18.2 years), respectively. Both bowel matting (OR, 14.23; 1.07-16.7; P = .039) and secondarily diagnosed atresia or stenosis (OR, 17.78; 3.13-100.98; P = .001) were independent postnatal predictors of SBS-IF. Eighteen children (51% of the SBS-IF group) were still dependent on artificial nutrition at the last follow-up. patients with SBS-IF who achieved full oral feeding had a median residual small-bowel length of 74 cm (IQR, 51-160 cm) vs 44 cm (IQR, 10-105 cm) for those still dependent on artificial nutrition (P = .02). An initial residual small bowel length of more than 50 cm was the best predictive cut-off for nutritional autonomy, with a sensitivity of 67% and a specificity of 100%. CONCLUSIONS: Bowel matting, complex gastroschisis, and secondary intestinal obstruction were associated with SBS-IF in gastroschisis. For patients with SBS-IF, a small bowel length of more than 50 cm was predictive of secondary nutritional autonomy.

OBJECTIVE: To identify the risk factors for early mortality and morbidity in a population with distal esophageal atresia (EA)-tracheoesophageal fistula. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study from a national register. Main outcomes and measures included early mortality, hospital length of stay (LoS), need for nutritional support at 1 year of age as a proxy measure of morbidity, and complications during the first year of life. RESULTS: In total, 1008 patients with a lower esophageal fistula were included from January 1, 2008, to December 31, 2014. The survival rate at 3 months was 94.9%. The cumulative hospital LoS was 31.0 (17.0-64.0) days. Multivariate analysis showed that intrahospital mortality at 3 months was associated with low birth weight (OR 0.52, 95% CI [0.38-0.72], P < .001), associated cardiac abnormalities (OR 6.09 [1.96-18.89], P = .002), and prenatal diagnosis (OR 2.96 [1.08-8.08], P = .034). LoS was associated with low birth weight (-0.225 ± 0.035, P < .001), associated malformations (0.082 ± 0.118, P < .001), surgical difficulties (0.270 ± 0.107, P < .001), and complications (0.535 ± 0.099, P < .001) during the first year of life. Predictive factors for dependency on nutrition support at 1 year of age were complications before 1 year (OR 3.28 [1.23-8.76], P < .02) and initial hospital LoS (OR 1.96 [1.15-3.33], P < .01). CONCLUSIONS: EA has a low rate of early mortality, but morbidity is high during the first year of life. Identifying factors associated with morbidity may help to improve neonatal care of this population.

OBJECTIVE: To identify predictors of and factors associated with the performance of antireflux surgery during the first year of life in children born with esophageal atresia. STUDY DESIGN: All patients were included in a French registry for esophageal atresia. All 38 multidisciplinary French centers completed questionnaires about perinatal characteristics and one-year outcome for children born with esophageal atresia. RESULTS: Of 835 infants with esophageal atresia born in France from 2010 to 2014, 682 patients, excluding those with long-gap esophageal atresia, were included. Three patients had type I, 669 had type III, and 10 had type IV esophageal atresia. Fifty-three children (7.8%) received fundoplication during the first year of life. The median age at the time of the end-to-end esophageal anastomosis was 1.1 day (range 0-15). Multivariate analysis identified three perioperative factors that predicted the need for early antireflux surgery: anastomotic tension (P = .004), associated malformations (P = .019), and low birth weight (P = .018). Six other factors, measured during the first year of life, were associated with the need for antireflux surgery: gastroesophageal reflux (P < .001), anastomotic stricture (P < .001), gastrostomy (P < .001), acute life-threatening event (P = .002), respiratory complications (P = .045), and poor nutritional status (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: Gastroesophageal reflux disease, low birth weight, poor nutrition, and surgical anastomosis difficulties predicted the performance of antireflux surgery in the first year of life in infants with esophageal atresia.
