Bilateral microphthalmia,esophageal atresia,and cryptorchidism: The anophthalmia-esophageal-genital syndrome

We report on a male infant with bilateral microphthalmia, esophageal atresia, and cryptorchidism. To our knowledge only 4 cases with a similar combination of congenital abnormalities have been previously reported, and it is likely that this represents a distinct entity. We suggest the name “anophthalmia-esophageal-genital-syndrome.” Am. J. Med. Genet. 70:171–173, 1997. © 1997 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
