Overview
As is common with many congenital related conditions, there are gaps in knowledge regarding the causation of congenital heart disease. Congenital heart disease is multi-factorial in origin, with genetics and environmental factors both playing a role.
Causes
Current knowledge regarding the causes of congenital heart disease is limited. Most research has been based on small studies(<1,000 patients). Congenital heart disease is multi-factorial in origin, with genetics and environmental factors both playing a role.
