“…Congenital malformations involving central nervous system were reported to be the commonest in the studies done by Fatema et al [1], Padma et al [2], Swain et al [3] followed by musculoskeletal, gastro intestinal and genito urinary systems in some. Neelu Desai [4] found musculoskeletal system as ranking first and Shamim et al [5] have shown Gastrointestinal anomalies topping the list .…”

Aims and Objectives: Assess the association of the congenital malformations with maternal age & analyse the congenital malformations, involving various systems of the body system wise. Materials and Methods: Foetuses of pregnant women attending government hospitals in Hyderabad were screened during a period of one year from October 2011 to September 2012 through ultrasonographic evaluation in the second trimester (12wks to 28wks) for congenital anomalies. Results: The central nervous system involving neural tube defects and musculoskeletal system involvement were the commonest among congenital anomalies affecting elderly maternal age group. Conclusion: Congenital anomalies are increasing in frequency with increasing maternal age & to prevent them more focus should be laid on maternal education, premarital counselling, antenatal care, supplementation with folic acid, prenatal ultrasonography & genetic studies in at-risk individuals.

“…A study from Iran also reported that the highest frequency of CM (33%) was of the musculoskeletal system [14]. However, several studies carried out in India have reported that the commonest CM was in the central nervous system (44%) [15]. Similar sex ratios to our study have been reported from India [19].…”

“…The overall prevalence of CM in live new born babies was 4.3%. The prevalence of congenital anomalies at birth in developed countries is reported to be between 3-5% [15]. A study from India in 2010 reported a prevalence of 3.6% [16].…”

“…According to one study, frequency of congenital anomalies was more in males than females, with CNS anomalies being the most common. The anomalies were more common in gestation age of 29-32 weeks [11]. In a retrospective study of 200 cases of congenital anomalies carried out in Jos, Nigeria, the highest incidence was reported in the gastrointestinal system 61 cases.…”

Congenital fetal anomalies contribute to the global burden of disease in children. Various screening programs have been used for antenatal screening of these anomalies. Screening targets low risk population and is usually done in the second trimester though some are done at the mother’s first antenatal visit especially in resource constrained setting. Mother’s who have had a previous pregnancy with congenital anomaly are given targeted elaborate screening. Early diagnosis of this anomalies can lead to early intervention and better outcomes. Diagnosis of the malformations also leads to clinical decision making on mode of delivery thereby avoiding birth related trauma to the mother and the baby. In case of lethal congenital anomalies early diagnosis aids in clinical decision making on the management of the pregnancy.
