A case of single pleural cavity with esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula.

This is a report of a premature infant presenting with an esophageal atresia. At surgery it was realized that there was no posterior mediastinum and a single pleural cavity only. Other serious congenital anomalies were present. She died rather suddenly upon cessation of her prostaglandin E 1 at 34 days of life.
