The VACTERL (vertebral defects, anal atresia, cardiac defects, tracheoesophageal fistula, renal anomalies, and limb abnormalities) association represents an enigmatic syndrome requiring further study. This report describes a full-term neonate born to a multiparous woman who was found, upon further examination, to have multiple congenital abnormalities, including a bicuspid aortic valve, patent foramen ovale, tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF), asymmetric crying facies, microphallus, and a single inguinal testis. The discussion explores environmental and genetic factors that may contribute to this association, as well as similar conditions, such as CHARGE (coloboma, heart defects, choanal atresia, growth retardation, genital abnormalities, and ear abnormalities) syndrome.

Article Synopsis
  • The study details a modified transvaginal repair technique (V-NOTES) for treating apical vesicovaginal fistulas (VVFs) in 26 patients, with 17 undergoing the V-NOTES procedure between January 2020 and January 2023.
  • Outcomes showed an 88.2% success rate, with an average operative time of 104.2 minutes and minimal blood loss (10.45 ml).
  • No major complications arose, and even initially failed repairs were successful on subsequent attempts, indicating that V-NOTES is an effective and safe treatment option for apical VVFs.
