Congenital bronchobiliary fistula (CBBF) is a rare anomaly in which a fistulous opening exists between the biliary tract and the tracheobronchial tree. CBBF may be accompanied by many congenital anomalies, with biliary system anomalies being the most common. CBBF was also reported to be associated with esophageal atresia in one case and right diaphragmatic hernia in another case. However, as far as we have known, CBBF case accompanied by multiple congenital anomalies has not been reported previously. In this article, we firstly present a case of a neonatal CBBF, incidentally diagnosed intraoperatively, accompanied by multiple congenital anomalies, including congenital diaphragmatic hernia. Secondly, we present our conclusions and updates about CBBF based on what we have learned from both our case and the literature.

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is a common congenital anomaly of uncertain etiology. Its association with multiple congenital anomalies in various organs is well recognized and antenatal radiological evidence of congenital diaphragmatic hernia warrants thorough evaluation to detect other anomalies, some of which can be life threatening. Rarely, heterotopic hepatic tissue is identified in the hernia, a rare pathological finding, exhibiting more than one macroscopic and microscopic characteristics, and always associated with cardiac congenital anomalies. Herein, we report a case of left-sided microscopic heterotopic hepatic tissue in a congenital diaphragmatic hernia in an infant with multiple cardiac congenital anomalies, but with preserved pericardium.

In 1977 Hornstein et al1 reported the occurrence of adrenal carcinoma in a child with fetal alcohol syndrome. Recently Seeler et al2 noted a ganglioneuroblastoma in a child with fetal hydantoin-alcohol syndromes. The association of neural crest tumors with fetal hydantoin syndrome now appears established.2 The following case suggests an association with neoplasia may also exist for fetal alcohol syndrome. CASE REPORT Clinical Summary T.E. was the 1,360 gm product of a 35-week gestation born to a 30-year old, black primigravida. At 11 days of age the patient was transferred to Duke Hospital for evaluation of multiple congenital anomalies and repair of a right-sided diaphragmatic hernia.

Introdução: A hérnia diafragmática congênita é a falha do fechamento embrionário do músculo diafragmático, resultando em um defeito de continuidade. Esta patologia pode ocorrer pela passagem de estruturas do abdome através de um defeito no diafragma, ou haver herniação parcial do estômago através do hiato esofágico, paralisia frênica com deslocamento do conteúdo abdominal para cima, mas sem herniação, e, eventração do diafragma. Casuística: Foi relatado um caso de hérnia diafragmática congênita, hérnia de Bochdalek, em um recém – nascido do sexo feminino, que nos ultra-sonografias da gestante apresentavam sem alterações. O diagnóstico da patologia foi feito apenas após a realização de raios-X de tórax e abdome para confirmar a posição do cateterismo umbilical venoso. Discussão/Conclusão: A apresentação clínica da hérnia de diafragmática congênita inclui desconforto respiratório moderado a grave com repercussão sistêmica. O diagnóstico, em cerca de 80% dos casos, é feito por ultrassom pré-natal. O tratamento proposto foi intubação endotraqueal com ventilação mecânica e programação para correção cirúrgica da hérnia. Após correção cirúrgica da patologia, a paciente permaneceu na unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal por 21 dias para acompanhamento de pós – operatório e intercorrências na evolução. Palavras-chave: hérnia diafragmática congênita, recém-nascido, hérnia de BochdalekABSTRACTIntroduction: Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is the failure of embryonic closure of the diaphragm, resulting in a lack of continuity. This condition can occur by passing structures of the abdomen through a defect in the diaphragm, or be part herniation of the stomach through the esophageal hiatus, phrenic paralysis with displacement of abdominal contents up but no herniation, and eventration of the diaphragm. Case Report: We report a case congenital diaphragmatic hernia, such as Bochdalek hernia, in a new - born female that in ultrasounds of pregnant women showed without change. The diagnosis of the disease was made only after conducting X-ray of the chest and abdomen to confirm the position of umbilical venous catheterization. Discussion/Conclusion: Clinical presentation of congenital diaphragmatic hernia includes moderate to severe respiratory distress with systemic repercussions. The diagnosis in about 80% of the cases is done by ultrasound prenatally. The proposed treatment was endotracheal intubation with mechanical ventilation and programming for surgical correction of the hernia. After surgical pathology, the patient remained in neonatal intensive care unit for 21 days to monitor post - operative complications and evolution.  Keywords: congenital diaphragmatic hernia, newborn, Bochdalek hernia

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is a common developmental anomaly encountered by paediatric surgeons. It is known to be associated with extradiaphragmatic malformations, which include cardiac, renal, genital, and chromosomal abnormalities. Herein, we report a newborn born with concurrent congenital diaphragmatic hernia, Meckel’s diverticulum, and heterotopic pancreatic tissue. This is the first case report of such a triad with description of possible mechanisms of the development.

To the Editor.— Kaler et al (Pediatrics 1987;79:434-436) provided a case report of hypertrichosis and multiple congenital anomalies with maternal minoxidil use. Reports such as this contribute to alerting national drug safety offices of possible teratologic questions. Maternal drug exposure data, since 1979 when minoxidil was marketed, is available to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) from 73,000 pregnancies (15,600 birth defects, 4,400 spontaneous abortions, and 53,000 normal outcomes). This yields, in addition to the report by Kaler et al, only two other births with maternal minoxidil exposures:
