Abstract

Genetics plays an important role in the etiology of congenital heart defects (CHDs), as demonstrated by clinical, epidemiological, embryological, and molecular studies. In fact, the finding of inherited CHDs, the association of CHDs with extracardiac defects and genetic syndromes and increasing knowledge about disease-associated genes are shedding light onto the role of genetic factors in determing CHDs.
