Understanding Congenital Anomalies by Santosh Ojha is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Congenital anomalies, also known as birth defects, are structural or functional anomalies that develop prenatally. An estimated 6% of babies worldwide are born with a congenital anomaly. Some anomalies can be treated, while others like heart defects and neural tube defects can cause lifelong impacts. Approximately 50% of congenital anomalies have no known cause, but genetic factors, chromosomal abnormalities, environmental exposures, and nutritional deficiencies are known contributors.
