Abstract:
Thirty-six patients with persistent tracheocutaneous fistula (TCF) after pediatric tracheotomy were managed at Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago between June 1987 and July 1992. Persistent TCF was managed with surgical excision and primary closure. The mean patient age was 5 years 7 months, and the mean duration between decannulation and fistula closure was 21 months. There were no major complications and four minor complications. While most surgeons advocate other techniques, we feel that excision with primary closure is the preferred method for persistent TCF. The technique requires an airtight tracheal closure with loose closure of the peristomal soft tissue. Careful preoperative evaluation, postoperative monitoring, and wound drainage are stressed.

Abstract:
This article reviews laryngeal cleft anomalies from the Laryngeal Development Laboratory at Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago and includes a discussion of the classification of laryngotracheoesophageal clefts based on previous work and the information presented herein. Of the 115 laryngeal specimens obtained between 1975 and 1995, 11 have laryngeal cleft anomalies. Eight have a submucous laryngeal cleft. There is 1 laryngotracheoesophageal cleft, type II (partial cricoid cleft); and there are 2 laryngotracheoesophageal clefts, type III (complete cricoid cleft). The histopathologic findings are presented in detail and the literature is reviewed. Photomicrographs and drawings illustrate the pathology and classification. Clinical presentation, diagnosis, evaluation, and management are discussed, as is the embryology.

Abstract:
Long-segment congenital tracheal stenosis (LSCTS) is a rare condition. Originally, it was felt to be uniformly fatal; however, advances in technique have made surgical repair and survival possible. Our objective is to report results and technique of slide tracheoplasty for the treatment of LSCTS in the context of the overall experience at the Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago. We reviewed 37 cases of infants and children with LSCTS. Thirty of the 37 infants underwent surgical intervention. Slide tracheoplasty resulted in survival in 1 of 2 infants, and pericardial patch tracheoplasty resulted in survival in 21 of 28 (75%). Of the 30 patients who had surgical repair, 7 (23%) have died, and 1 has been lost to follow-up (3%). Follow-up has ranged from 6 months to 13 years. Slide tracheoplasty is a satisfactory adjunct to existing techniques. With early diagnosis and appropriate management of LSCTS, survival is possible in a majority of patients.

Abstract:
Object The superior medullary velum (SMV) is a thin lamina of white matter located between the superior cerebellar peduncles horizontally and between the midbrain and cerebellum vertically. The SMV has not previously been described as the primary location of a posterior fossa tumor, although it can be secondarily invaded by a tumor from the cerebellum or quadrigeminal plate. This paper aims to define clinical and radiological features of tumors primarily arising from the SMV during childhood. Methods The authors observed 6 infants and children harboring neoplasms of the SMV who were treated at Ann & Robert Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago (formerly Children's Memorial Hospital) in Chicago, Illinois. Pathological diagnosis of the neoplasms was an atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT) in 5 patients, and a juvenile pilocytic astrocytoma (JPA) in the remaining child. The tumors were diagnosed during infancy in all patients, with ages ranging from 3 months to 10 months, except for the patient with a JPA (diagnosed at 5 years old). All patients presented with signs and symptoms of increased intracranial pressure due to obstructive hydrocephalus. Results Characteristic MRI features were noted, consistent with a mass in both the fourth ventricle and the cerebellomesencephalic fissure and quadrigeminal cistern, resulting in the circumferential displacement of the neural structures surrounding the SMV. The tumor was removed effectively in gross-total fashion through the occipital transtentorial approach in all patients. This approach offers a wide exposure of the region. However, all infants with ATRT suffered tumor dissemination and died between 4 and 11 months after diagnosis, in spite of radical resection and oncological treatment. The 1 child with JPA is alive and well 30 months after tumor resection. Conclusions To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first description in the literature that focuses on tumors originating from the SMV. This entity must be promptly recognized on preoperative radiological studies to carefully plan the subsequent surgical and clinical management.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to describe and compare posttreatment craniofacial morphology in samples of complete unilateral cleft lip and palate (CUCLP) patients treated at two leading clinics: The Children's Memorial Hospital Cleft Palate Clinic, Chicago, Illinois, and the Lancaster Cleft Palate Clinic, Lancaster, Pennsylvania. These centers have well-defined treatment protocols that allow the long-term effects on craniofacial form of the following treatment regimes to be contrasted: (1) Chicago—primary alveolar bone grafting, with definitive lip repair at age 4 to 6 months and hard and soft palate repair at 6 to 12 months; and (2) Lancaster—definitive triangular-flap lip repair at 3 months of age, followed by staged surgeries of the hard and soft palates, both completed by 18 months of age, but without primary alveolar bone grafting. Although the Lancaster center now performs secondary alveolar bone grafting, the majority of the patients studied here were treated before this procedure became part of their protocol. Patients were eligible for inclusion if they had no other congenital anomalies and no previous orthodontic treatment. A sample of 43 (24 male, 19 female) CUCLP patients was obtained from the Chicago Center, each of which was then matched to a non-grafted Lancaster CUCLP patient. The matching criteria were age, sex, and sella-nasion distance (to control, at least in part, for size differences). Lateral cephalometric radiographs of these 86 CUCLP patients were traced, digitized, and analyzed. Additionally, all linear data were adjusted to a standard magnification of 8% because the cephalograms from each center featured different enlargements. The Chicago and Lancaster samples had mean posttreatment ages of 10.32 years (SD = 1.96) and 10.40 years (SD = 2.18), respectively. The grafted Chicago group had faces that were on average less maxillary protrusive compared with the nongrafted Lancaster sample; it appeared, however, that the mandible compensated for the maxillary position by downward and backward rotation. As a result, a similar maxillomandibular relationship was noted in both groups, although, in the Chicago group, the lower anterior facial height increased.

Abstract:
My role in the debate between myself and Bill Gaynor is to substantiate the notion that severe pulmonary valvar insufficiency should be treated in aggressive fashion. This gives me few problems. At Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago, we have a long tradition of favouring early insertion of new pulmonary valves in patients with significant pulmonary valvar insufficiency following repair of tetralogy of Fallot. Our results with this strategy in the current era were first presented in 1986 at the Western Thoracic Surgical Association.1 At that time, we had inserted pulmonary valves late following repair of tetralogy of Fallot in 42 patients. We postulated that early control of pulmonary insufficiency may prevent long-term deterioration in right ventricular function. The fact that this is a controversial issue became immediately apparent during the discussion of our presentation. Dr. Frank Spencer, from New York, stated “I would completely disagree with the concept of electively inserting a porcine valve in a child on the basis of haemodynamic data. I fear that the approach recommended in this presentation is probably treating one disease by creating a worse one.”
