AB While  minimally  invasive  techniques  have  been  used  to  alleviate  esophageal  symptoms,  such  as  thoracoscopic  release  of  vascular  rings  causing  esophageal  obstruction  or  laparoscopic  fundoplication  for  gastroesophageal  reflux  disease  (GERD),  this  chapter  focuses  on  minimally  invasive  methods  for  direct  surgical  repair  of  congenital  esophageal  anomalies:  esophageal  atresia  (EA)  with  or  without  tracheoesophageal  fistula  (TEF)  and  foregut  duplication  cysts.
