ABSTRACT

VACTER association is described as the set of congenital anomalies that may present a single patient: vertebral defects, anal defects, cardiac malformations, tracheal esophageal fistula and radial and renal anomalies. Generally, brain development is normal as there is no central nervous system involvement.
A case of a girl with VACTER association: vertebral defect, anorectal malformation with vestibular fistula, atrial septal defect and renal agenesis. The prognosis in these patients is generally good.
