- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a pre-term newborn who has developed hypoxic respiratory failure due to an H-type tracheoesophageal fistula. It highlights the diagnostic challenges and management strategies, including the use of contrast-enhanced imaging and surgical intervention. It is reported that the timely ligation of the fistula via a sub-clavian approach led to significant improvement in the infant's condition.
