VATER Syndrome transmission

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi, I am affected by VATER association.

I would like to know, in case I have children, if there is the possibility that I will "pass" this syndrome to them.

Thank you in advance for your help.

    Its not really known what causes this but its possibly something that happens to the foetus early on in pregnancy. There doesnt seem to be any inherited traits, but if you are worried talk to your doctor about this.
