Abstract
The recurrence of a tracheoesophageal fistula (TOF) is a known complication that follows a primary operative repair of a TOF. It is a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge due to its significant morbidity. Treatment options include open surgical repair or endoscopic repair of the fistula. We present a case of a recurrent TOF in an 11-month-old girl with tetralogy of fallot that was treated successfully via endoscopic approach with electrocautery and tissue adhesive.
