Abstract. | Genetic diseases are very numerous in humans. Currently, we know about 10.000 diseases that are determined or conditioned by genetic factors. These maladies have a great diversity and affect all kinds of systems and organs therefore we could find them in every medical area. In this paperwork I have studied the frequency of genetic maladies and congenital malformation during the year 2009 for the children in Bacau County. This initiative came to support the „National Programme for prophylactic methods in genetic disorders”. The results show that male children are the most affected by congenital malformations. The samples were represented by a group of male children (18 subjects) compared to a sample of 9 female subjects. We have chosen this number of subjects because it is representative for the number of male and female births during the year 2009. |
