Journal ArticleDOI
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia. Epidemiology and outcome
Max R. Langham,David W. Kays,Daniel J. Ledbetter,Barbara Frentzen,Louie L. Sanford,Douglas S. Richards +5 more
TL;DR: Current data make it clear that CDH represents a major cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality, but no data exist to allow a rigorous comparison of the efficacy of various treatment strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detrimental effects of standard medical therapy in congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
TL;DR: This study sets a survival benchmark and strongly suggests the negative effects of hyperventilation and alkalization, and nonstandard ventilatory support of patients with CDH has led to significantly improved survival rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Martha Douglas-Escobar,Cui Yang,Jeffrey Bennett,Jonathan J. Shuster,Douglas W. Theriaque,Avital Leibovici,David W. Kays,Tong Zheng,Candace Rossignol,Gerry Shaw,Michael D. Weiss +10 more

Journal ArticleDOI
Outcomes of treatment of childhood achalasia
TL;DR: Heller myotomy may provide more durable long-term outcomes, as defined by symptom recurrence and need for subsequent intervention, and may be considered the procedure of choice in children with achalasia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Traumatic aortic injuries in the pediatric population.
Scott A. Anderson,Mathew Day,Mike K. Chen,Thomas S. Huber,Lawrence Lottenberg,David W. Kays,Elizabeth A. Beierle +6 more
