    Abstract:
    A retrospective study of 20,591 live born babies and still birth was made in order to estimate the incidence of congenital malformations total and by type diagnosed at birth. The total incidence is 1,74 p. 100. The sex ratio, the mean birth rank and parental ages were computed for the different types of malformation and in the control group. The birth weight was low in case of severe malformation. It was found that malformations were associated with significantly raised abortions and still birth rates among previous pregnancies.
