FACTORS INFLUENCE
FETAL QUALITY
Internal factors:
�Genetics (single gene; chromosomal)
� Race; Family pattern; Age; Sex
External/Enviroment factors:
Prenatally
�Maternal nutrition
�Mechanically: club foot
�Chemical agent (ex.drugs)
�Endocrine disorder
�Radiation: congenital malformation
�Infection: TORCH (Toxoplasmosis, Other (syphilis, varicella-zoster,
parvovirus B19), Rubella, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), and Herpes infections)
�Blood group incompatibility: erythroblastosis foetalis
�Anoxia embryonal: placental disturbances
�Maternal psychologic disturbances

SPECIFIC QUESTIONS
When a child is born with a congenital malformation, the
parents have four specific questions:
Why did this happen to our child?
How will it be treated on a short- and long-term basis?
What is the short- and long-term prognosis?
And finally, can it happen again (ie, will siblings or grandchildren be
affected)?
Genetic or molecular studies of congenital malformations in children
can help answer these questions.
