Your source for information on congenital disorders and birth defects.

A congenital disorder is a medical condition that is present at birth. A congenital disorder can be recognized before birth (prenatally), at birth, or many years later. The causes of congenital disorders can vary.

Congenital disorders can vary in severity from minor physical anomalies to more severe abnormalities.

Please review the statistics of Congenital disorders to gain a better understanding of its prevalence.

About 25% of birth defects result from genetic abnormalities. About 5% involve abnormalities of large portions or entire chromosomes. Some congenital disorders arise from inheritance of abnormal genes from the parents but some can arise from a new mutation in one of the germ cells that contributed to the fetus.
