A Population‐Based Assessment of Cancer Risk in Children With VACTERL

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cancer risk in children with VACTERL, a nonrandom co‐occurrence of ≥ 3 defects (vertebral, anal, cardiac, tracheoesophogeal fistula, renal, and limb), remains unclear. We evaluated this association in a population‐based study. We analyzed data from the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Study, a US registry linkage ...
