Abstract
We present the prenatal evaluation and diagnosis of a disorganized che st wall hamartoma with underlying sternal cleft in a family with a pri or offspring with the VATER association. The possibility that these co nditions are linked to mesodermal defects with a common pathogenic eti ology is suggested.
