Abstract

We describe a female infant with tracheal agenesis associated with severe complicated malformations including the cardiovascular system. The patient was born of a mother with mosaic Turner's syndrome at 35 weeks of gestation after premature rupture of the membranes during treatment for polyhydramnios. The patient died 2 days after birth and the autopsy disclosed tracheal agenesis and associated multiple anomalies.
