We present a case of a full-term infant with an esophageal lung presenting as a white lung combined with VACTERL association (vertebral defects, anal atresia, cardiac defects, tracheo-esophageal fistula, renal anomalies, and limb abnormalities) and dysmorphic features. A right pneumonectomy was successfully performed.
