Abstract A patient diagnosed with trisomy 18 is at great risk of perioperative morbidity and mortality, especially with complex congenital cardiac anomalies. Here, we report successful anesthetic management of palliative esophageal‐banding and gastrostomy for trachea‐esophageal fistula in a patient who had a complex congenital heart disease with trisomy 18.
