Extractions: Developmental Disabilities VATER ASSOCIATION VATER Association is not a diagnosis. It is a combination of birth defects that are associated. This means that they tend to occur together. If a doctor sees two of the birth defects, he/she knows to check the other symptoms of VATER Association. VATER is an acronym in which each letter stands for a body part that may be affected. Anyone who has abnormalities in three or more of these body parts is said to fit in the category of VATER Association. V - Vertebrae A - Anus (and sometimes rectum) T E R Occasionally the following are also affected, resulting in acronyms such as VACTERLS, VATERS, and VACTERL. C L S Causes of VATER Association Most cases of VATER Association seem to occur sporadically throughout the population, although a few cases appear to run in families. The cause or causes for this group of symptoms are unknown at this time. No known environmental factor (drug, chemical, radiation) has been shown to cause VATER Association. Nothing the mother did or did not do during pregnancy has been shown to cause VATER Association. The chance of VATER Association occurring in siblings is low. What Can I Expect?

Extractions: Ampu what? What's a Vater? ... strange name for a body part ... the ampulla of Vater is an unusual body part ... where some very important body parts come together. These body parts are crucial to the digestive system and if you have a problem with the ampulla of Vater, then you are facing problems with these other parts. Before we can understand the ampulla of Vater, we must first understand some of those other parts. Bile is a fluid made by the liver. It is stored in the gallbladder. Among other things, it helps digest fat. Bile enters the rest of your digestive system at a point near the stomach. This point is called the duodenum, at the very beginning of the small intestine. Bile enters the duodenum using the common bile duct. Two major bile ducts (from the liver and pancreas) come together into the common bile duct. The common bile duct carries bile to the rest of the digestive system, through the duodenum. The pancreas is in that same general area of your body. It sits sideways near the back and at the bottom of the stomach, lower than the liver and just about the same position as the gall bladder (which is also under the liver). The pancreas produces a variety of fluids, generally known as pancreatic juices.

Extractions: VATER or VACTERL association is an acronym used to describe a series of characteristics which have been found to occur together. V stands for vertebrae, which are the bones of the spinal column. A stands for imperforate anus or anal atresia, or an anus that does not open to the outside of the body. TE stands for tracheoesophageal fistula, which is a persistent connection between the trachea (the windpipe ) and the esophagus (the feeding tube ). R stands for renal or kidney anomalies and radial or arm anomalies. C is added to the acronym to denote cardiac anomalies, and L is often added to stand for limb anomalies. Babies who have been diagnosed as having VATER association usually have at least three or more of these individual anomalies. There is a wide range of manifestation of VATER association so that the exact incidence within the population is not exactly known.

Extractions: Webmaster: Vicki Martin VATER (VACTERL) Syndrome Some babies with TOF are born with additional defects to various parts of the body. There is a recognised association between a particular group of abnormalities, which has been termed the VATER Association - or more recently VACTERL - after the initial letters of the various components: V Vertebral (spine or backbones) A Anal (back passage) C Cardiac (heart) T Tracheal (windpipe) E Esophageal (foodpipe) - UK spelling is oesophageal R Renal (kidney) view examples L Limb (arms/legs) - usually lower arm view illustration Three or more of these are required before a child is considered 'a VACTERL child' but whether or not a baby is 'VACTERL' is not in itself a 'diagnosis' - these are simply a list of anomalies which occur together and the acronym helps medical professionals to know what to look for.
