Carmi syndrome complicated by pharyngo-esophageal perforation.
We describe a neonate having congenital pyloric atresia (CPA) associated with epidermolysis bullosa (EB), also known as Carmi syndrome. The case is unusual as it was complicated with pharyngo-esophageal perforation (PEP) and a definite family history of EB in pervious generations could be recorded.
