Abstract
Four children are described who presented malformations according to CHARGE-Association. The primary abnormalities were choanal atresia and/or Coloboma. All four cases exhibited esophageal malformations: atresia and/or fistulas. At autopsy, three children showed arhinencephaly which is rarely observed in patients with CHARGE-Association. Patients with the main features of CHARGE-Association have a very poor prognosis depending on the severity of the malformations.
