VATER Association by multiple let ters, requests and phone calls from the parents of children withanorectal malformations who have inquired about the socalled vater syndrome. http://www.pullthrough.org/ptnn5.html
Extractions: 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.

SECONDARY AORTOESOPHAGEAL FISTULA AS A LETHAL Complication of ContiNuous Nasogastric Sondage. In a Child With vater syndrome. Thefirst case of vater syndrome was described by Quan and Smith in 1973. http://www.kfshrc.edu.sa/annals/213_214/00-138.htm
Extractions: 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.

Extractions: Select a link You're Not Alone Our Story Esophageal Atresia TEF VATER / VACTERYL The First Survivors How to Cope FAQs Other Support Groups Update Notices Info Request Form Site Glossary The Story of Identical Twins with VATER Syndrome Hello, my name is Michelle, and I am 32-years old, and my husband, Ismael, is 30. We have been married for nine years. We have three daughters, Jasmine, Jadira, and Joscelin. Jasmine is 4-years old. Jadira and Joscelin are identical 2-year old twins born with the VATER Syndrome. During my pregnancy I was diagnosed with complications for having monoamniotic, monochorionic twin gestation, meaning my pregnancy was with identical twins in one placenta and had no membrane to separate either twin. At four months into my pregnancy, during a routine ultrasound, I was told by my OB/GYN, Dr. Francisco Garza, that my twins had the VATER Syndrome. At six months of pregnancy I was hospitalized at St. Peter's High Risk Neonatal Hospital in New Brunswick, New Jersey for the rest of my pregnancy, due to my complication of a high-risk pregnancy. During my pregnancy I was given a steroid called Betamethozone once a week for four weeks to increase the twins' pulmonary maturity in case of umbilical cord entanglement, decreasing oxygen to one another, demise of one or both twins, or if I went into premature labor. I had twice daily fetal monitoring, and non-stress testing. Once every week antenatal ultrasounds and biophysical profiles were done.

Tracheo-esophagealfistula is a sporadically occurring defect estimated to occur in 1 out4425 live births. Only one case of Prune Belly Syndrome, tracheo-esophagealfistula associated with VATER syndrome, and urethral atresia occurringin the same individual has been reported. We present a uniquecase involving a 33 week fetus with bladder distention and bilateral hydroureteronephrosisdiagnosed in utero who postnatally was diagnosed with Prune Belly Syndrome,tracheo-esophageal fistula, and urethral atresia. CASE REPORT After the placement of a 8 Fr. percutaneous suprapubic tube, a cystogramwas performed which demonstrated a large bladder with severe trabeculation.After instillation of 200 milliliters of cystograffin under gravity, bilateralgrade 5 ureteral reflux was evident by the presence of contrast in therenal pelvis bilaterally On day four of life, the patient was noted to have a creatinine of 1.0mg/dl. Urine output during this time was between 1.5-3 ml/kg/hr. Repeatabdominal ultrasonography demonstrated worsening hydroureteronephrosis.The patient was taken to the operating room for an exploratory laparotomyand urinary diversion.

Patient Success Story: Benjamin Mayforth According to Roger Voigt, MD, a pediatric surgeon at the University of MarylandMedical Center, Ben was born with a rare disorder called vater syndrome. http://www.umm.edu/pediatrics/mayforth.html
Extractions: Watching 8-year-old Benjamin Mayforth shoot hoops with his sister Bailey in front of their home at the edge of a leafy cul-de-sac, it is hard to imagine all of the medical intervention he has had to endure to have the kind of innocent fun most children take for granted. With 13 surgeries behind him, Ben has suffered more physical setbacks in his young life than most adults nearing retirement age. Born with various defects, Ben has never known a life unencumbered by trips to the doctor and hospital stays. Hours after he was born at the Harford Memorial Hospital in Havre de Grace, Maryland, he was rushed to Baltimore to the University of Maryland Hospital for Children's (UMHC) neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). There, doctors discovered his congenital defects, which include missing ribs, an underdeveloped lung, clubfeet, and a malformed spine the result of spina bifida.
