Tissue engineering

The sums collected will supply the research fund of the association. Soon, starting from stem cells only, it will be possible to reconstruct a complete and functional esophagus. Thanks to medical advances of this new technique of tissue engineering, the affected children’s quality of life will improve.

About atresia

The esophageal atresia is an interruption of the esophagus affecting babies: the esophagus has two dead ends separated by greater or lesser intervals depending on the type of atresia.
The French Association of Atresia of the Esophagus is a Law 1901 Association founded in 2002 to bring the families affected by esophageal atresia out of isolation.
Its first aim is supporting, listening, welcoming, but especially informing the families facing this rare disease.
