Congenital choanal atresia in siblings

K E Brenner et al. J Perinatol. 2000 Oct-Nov.

Abstract

Choanal atresia is a relatively rare anomaly of the upper airway, which can result in significant respiratory distress in the newborn. It is often associated with other anomalies and has only rarely been reported in siblings. We report its isolated occurrence in two siblings.
