Abstract
We report on two new patients who had unilateral microphthalmia and esophag eal atresia. A similar association was previously described in six patients . The accumulation of the eight affected patients provides further support for recognizing this association as a distinct syndrome. (C) 1999 Wiley-Lis s, Inc.
