title: [Congenital "cardio-esophageal" syndromes. Congenital cardiopathies and multiple abnormalities syndromes in the child with esophageal abnormalities].
abstract: A case of esophageal stenosis and tracheo-esophageal fistula associated with dextrocardia due to dextrorotation, ventricular septal defect and complete double arotic arch is reported. In 116 cases of esophageal atresia and tracheo-esophageal fistula 9 had an associated cardiac malformation (4 right-sided aortic arch and 4 ventricular septal defects). The possible individualization of multiple abnormality syndromes in which these two types of malformations are associated with others such as vertebral arch defects, limb anomalies, imperforate anus, etc. is discussed. These are so-called "Vater" or "Vactel" syndromes.
