ABSTRACT
Tracheal agenesis with bronchoesophageal fistula should be suspected in any newborn who is cyanotic at birth, has an absent cry, and cannot be intubated but shows some improvement when ventilated by bag and mask. It is important to make the diagnosis as soon as possible because esophageal intubation or a distal tracheostomy may be the only method to provide an airway while other measures and/or diagnostic confirmation are being sought. We experienced a case of complete tracheal agenesis with carinoesophageal fistula, cloacal anomalies in a male neonate.
