β¦ Synopsis
Data of 13,037 live-born infants from a hospital in Tehran, Iran were analysed for congenital malformations and genetic diseases. The results showed that the rates of joint dislocation, cleft lip, cleft palate and finger anomalies are similar to those of the other populations. The rates of chromosomal, thorax and abdominal, external genital anomalies and other syndromes were higher compared with other populations, whereas the rates of multiple births and limb anomalies were lower.
