|February 1, 1976
Abstract:
A spontaneously aborted human male fetus of 94 mm crown-rump length had multiple malformations including atresia of the esophagus with tracheoesophageal fistula, anorectal agenesis, anomalies of the heart and great vessels, kidneys, bladder, and left testis, and a single umbilical artery. This association of defects has not previously been described in a fetus at this immature stage of development.
