Congenital malformation
|
|
Congenital malformations (CM) are those defects characterized by an abnormal form or structure of an organ, mostly macroscopic, formed before birth. These defects are very heterogeneous for type of organ affected, for severity level, and etiopathogenesis. From an etiological point of view, birth defects can be divided into "genetic", "non-genetic" and "multifactorial."
