“…The abnormalities include tracheal agenesis, congenital stenosis, premature cartilage calcifications, short trachea and tracheomalacia, as well as disorders associated with tracheoesphageal fistulas. 42 Caretakers should be aware of this when caring for newborns with skeletal abnormalities, and can affect prognosis in many of the nonlethal skeletal disorders.…”

Synoposis The skeletal dysplasias are a group of more than 450 heritable disorders of bone. They frequently present in the newborn period with disproportion, radiographic abnormalities, and occasionally other organ system abnormalities. For improved clinical care it is important to determine a precise diagnosis to aid in management, familial recurrence and identify those disorders highly associated with mortality. Long-term management of these disorders is predicated on an understanding of the associated skeletal system abnormalities and these children are best served by a team approach to health care surveillance.

“…However, the incidence of lower airway anomalies has not been described. Some studies showed that lower airway anomalies are relatively common in children with CHD 8, 10, 11. These airways anomalies may cause difficulties in extubation among these patients even after a successful cardiac surgery.…”

“…Immunologic deficiencies secondary to thymic agenesis or hypoplasia, and hypocalcemia secondary to hypoparathyroidism are the main manifestations with congenital cardiac anomalies [2,3]. From the anesthesiologist's point of view, short trachea [5], hypocalcemic seizure [6], and postoperative tachycardia after multiple dental extractions using local epinephrine were commented [7]. Gastric regurgitation or aspiration was rarely mentioned as one of the symptoms.…”
