THIS PRESENTATION IS UPLOADED TO CREATE AWARENESS ABOUT COMMON CONGENITAL PROBLEMS AMONG CHILDRENS. IT IS ALSO HELPFULL TO THE EDUCATORS OF MEDICAL, DENTAL, NURSING AND HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONS TO TEACH THEIR STUDENTS.

10. Cretinism) is a medical condition present at birth
marked by impaired physical and mental
development, due to insufficient thyroid hormone
(hypothyroidism) often caused by insufficient
dietary iodine during pregnancy.
women with diabetes are heart problems, brain
and spinal defects, oral clefts, kidney and
gastrointestinal tract defects, and limb deficiencies.
Adequate periconceptional maternal folic acid supplementation
during critical periods of organ formation is associated with
reduction in both the occurrence and recurrence of neural tube
defects, congenital heart defects

11. CATARACT: Lens of the eye
becomes progressively opaque,
resulting in blurred vision.
Microophthalmia: birth defect in
which one or both eyes did not
develop fully, so they are small.
ASD: A birth defect that causes a hole in the wall between the heart's upper
chambers (atria).
PDA: It is an opening between two blood vessels leading from the heart.
VSD: A heart defect due to an abnormal connection between the lower chambers of
the heart (ventricles)

13. MICROCEPHALY: Baby's head is
significantly smaller than
expected, often due to abnormal
brain development.
Choreoretinitis: an inflammation
of the choroid (thin pigmented
vascular coat of the eye) and
retina of the eye.

28. PHENCICLIDINE

36. Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome: an overgrowth
disorder usually present at birth, characterized by an
increased risk of childhood cancer .

37. Choanal atresia is a congenital
disorder the back of the nasal
passage (choana) is blocked, usually
by abnormal bony or soft tissue
(membranous) due to failed
recanalization of the nasal fossae
during fetal development.

44. Pierre Robin sequence is a
set of abnormalities
affecting the head and
face, consisting of a small
lower jaw (micrognathia), a
tongue that is placed
further back than normal
(glossoptosis), and
blockage (obstruction) of
the airways.

46. Apert syndrome is a genetic disorder characterized by
the premature fusion of certain skull bones
(craniosynostosis). This early fusion prevents the skull
from growing normally and affects the shape of the
head and face. In addition, a varied number of fingers
and toes are fused together (syndactyly).

47. DiGeorge syndrome, also known as 22q11.2
deletion syndrome, is a syndrome caused by
the deletion of a small segment of
chromosome 22. While the symptoms can
vary, they often include congenital heart
problems, specific facial features, frequent
infections, developmental delay, learning
problems and cleft palate.

48. Crouzon syndrome is a genetic disorder characterized by
the premature fusion of certain skull bones
(craniosynostosis). This early fusion prevents the skull
from growing normally and affects the shape of the head
and face. Many features of Crouzon syndrome result from
the premature fusion of the skull bones.

49. Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is a genetic disorder
characterized by deformities of the ears, eyes,
cheekbones, and chin. The degree to which a person is
affected, however, may vary from mild to severe.
Complcations may include breathing problems, problems
seeing, cleft palate, and hearing loss.
