Additional abnormalities later observed in VATER patients include vertebral anomalies, and spondylocostal dysplasia, and intestinal, cardiac, renal, and respiratory malformations, leading to expansion of the acronym to VACERL association. Central nervous system malformations and mental retardation were noted in a small number of cases. The acronyms emphasize only the most frequently malformations and a wide variety of other defects affecting most parts of the body may be associated.

Extractions: Many parents are turning to the Internet when trying to find information on their children's illnesses. If your child has been newly diagnosed with a chronic condition, it is best to talk with your doctor (especially if you have been referred to a specialist), before you try doing research on your own . Chronic conditions can have many different symptoms and the outcome varies greatly and you may find yourself more confused and scared after reading the information that you find on the Internet. I invite parents to join the online forums and share their experiences in having a child with a chronic illness.
