Abstract
Congenital high airway obstruction syndrome (CHAOS) includes laryngeal atresia and tracheal agenesis which are rare and potentially lethal conditions. We describe a newborn term infant with laryngeal atresia and tracheal agenesis with a distal tracheo-esophageal fistula (TEF). He also had a double outlet right ventricle (DORV) and a persistent left superior vena cava (LSVC). To our knowledge this is the first report of this association.
