Overview
Current knowledge regarding the causes of congenital heart disease is limited. Most research has been based on small studies (<1,000 patients). 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
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
Common Causes
- Aortic stenosis
- Atrial septal defect[1]
- Coarctation of the aorta
- Down syndrome[2]
- Ebstein's anomaly
- Endocardial cushion defect
- Hypoplastic left heart syndrome
- Noonan syndrome[2]
- Patent ductus arteriosus
- Pulmonary atresia
- Pulmonic stenosis
- Tetralogy of Fallot
- Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection
- Transposition of the great vessels
- Turner syndrome
- Ventricular septal defect
