They tried join it with surgery but they said the gap is too large it is not possible to join it. last 2 days baby in home with out oxygen and with out glucose drip. Baby all parts are perfect. His brain is already working. But doctor said that after surgery may be baby brain not develop. Last night baby take mother feed. He is ok. Please tell me what is the solution.
Hi...by what you quote I feel that the infant is having a congenital anomaly of the food pipe and breathing tube. It could even be a tracheo-esophageal fistula. Such kids might have recurrent aspiration and lower respiratory infections.
I suggest you get evaluate him further and post a direct query to me on this website with scanned copies of all the investigations and discharge summary of the baby.
