Abstract

Congenital malformations are defined as genetically determined structural defects present in the child at birth. Thousand congenital defects have been identified. Lip-palate fissures are congenital structural deficiencies due to a faulty fusion of some developing embryonal facial process. This defect is usually found in live-born children. In present study we intended to identify behavior of lip, palate fissures, or both in sick mother during pregnancy. Thus, we analyzed all the live-born children diagnosed with lip, palate fissure, or both during 2000-2006 years in Havana City province, with a study sample of 112 patients. Form was designed to get the information related to diseases present in the patient's mothers during pregnancy. Most of mothers whose children had fissures had diseases during pregnancy. The trimester of great affection was the third one, and the most frequent disease was the high blood pressure.
