VATER Association by Alberto Peña, M.D., F.A.C.S., F.A.A.P. Mrs. Michelle Assoian, (former) Director of the Pull-Thru Network, and I, conceived this paper motivated by multiple let ters, requests and phone calls from the parents of children with anorectal malformations who have inquired about the so-called VATER syndrome. Many of them expressed anxiety and confusion regarding this concept. They wanted to know whether or not their children had VATER syndrome and what impact it might have on their child's future. Some parents were confused because their children were labeled as having VATER by some of their doctors and not by others. The word VATER was created from the observation that Vertebral defects, Anal malformations, TE /tracheo-esophageal fistula, E esophageal atresia, Renal defects and Radial bone dysplasia are often seen together in the same child. It is true that many patients with anorectal malformations have associated vertebral, renal, esophageal or radial defects. However, it is our specific purpose to provide orientation to those parents of children with anorectal malformations, to redefine in their own minds what is important and unimpor tant for their children's future. I personally recommend that the concept of VATER be forgotten. To try to label a child with the word VATER has absolutely no relevance from the practical point of view. It has no real, functional prognostic value and tends to complicate a very simple problem.

After instillation of 200 milliliters of cystograffin under gravity, bilateral grade 5 ureteral reflux was evident by the presence of contrast in the renal pelvis bilaterally (Figure 1) . Next, abdominal ultrasonography was performed revealing moderate bilateral hydroureteronephrosis, thickened bladder wall, and free intraperitoneal fluid. The patientís initial laboratory results revealed a normal serum creatinine of 0.3 gm/dl. Her postnatal course was complicated by the discovery of free intraabdominal air on day 1 of life. The patient was taken immediately to the operating room where a gastric perforation was discovered secondary to a distal tracheo-esophageal fistula with a proximal pouch. No esophageal atresia was present. The esophagus was ligated and a gastrotomy tube placed.

The limb buds (ie, Wolff crest) appear as swellings on the ventrolateral aspect of the embryo and are condensations of mesenchyme covered with a thick layer of ectoderm termed the apical ectodermal ridge (AER). The AER is a transient structure that is believed to elaborate morphogens that modulate growth patterns. The underlying mesoderm is organized into a posteriorly located zone of polarizing activity (ZPA) and a progress zone (PZ) more anteriorly. Vessels and then nerves subsequently grow into the limb. Mesodermal differentiation into cartilage and muscle begins to occur. The limb begins to pronate, the elbow flexes, and the hand is flexed and the ulnar deviated.

Secondary Aortoesophageal Fistula As a Lethal Complication of ContiNuous Nasogastric Sondage In a Child With Vater Syndrome Z. Maarouf, MD; K. Kajo, MD; L. Plank, MD, PhD L. L’auko, MD, PhD ; D. Murgaš, MD The first case of VATER syndrome was described by Quan and Smith in 1973. The syndrome represents a complex anomaly of skeletal structures and internal organs, an association of vertebral defects with anal atresia, tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF), and radial limb dysplasia. Generally, TEF may occur with or without esophageal atresia. In 85% of the VATER syndrome cases, TEF results from a fistulation of the distal esophagus to the trachea by an atretic proximal blind end of the esophagus. Polyhydramnion and excessive salivation are early clinical manifestations of TEF, followed by choking, coughing and cyanosis after the first feeding. These symptoms can even appear before the first feeding due to a saliva and gastric content aspiration. Therefore, surgical repair of this anomaly within the first 24 hours after delivery presents the treatment of choice and may be of vital importance. Our case report deals with a rare secondary aortoesophageal fistula (AEF) which developed after continuous nasogastric intubation of a child with VATER syndrome, who was operated on for congenital esophageal atresia associated with TEF.
