H-type tracheoesophageal fistula and laryngotracheoesophageal cleft are both rare anomalies. Laryngotracheoesophageal clefts are identified as a part of Opitz-Frias syndrome. We report a neonate with this combination of rare congenital anomalies. These associated malformations can have major implications in terms of resuscitation, diagnosis and surgical management, which are discussed.
