Birth Defects There are two main types of birth defects: structural and functional/developmental. Structural birth defects are related to a problem with body parts. Some physical problems include cleft lip or cleft palate, heart defects, such as missing or misshaped valves, and abnormal limbs, such as a club foot. They also include neural tube defects, such as spina bifida, problems that are related to the growth and development of the brain and spinal cord. Functional birth defects are related to a problem with how a body part or body system works.

It is a type of neural tube defect (NTD).These are birth defects that happen during the first month of pregnancy, usually before a woman knows she is pregnant.nencephaly happens if the upper part of the neural tube does not close all the way. This often results in a baby being born without the front part of the brain (forebrain) and the thinking and coordinating part of the brain (cerebrum). The remaining parts of the brain are often not covered by bone or skin.

Delayed Puberty in Boys: Information for Parents Boys with chronic illnesses such as inflammatory bowel disease, sickle cell disease, or cystic fibrosis often mature late. A smaller number of boys with delayed puberty have a lifelong deficiency of the puberty hormones LH and FSH, a problem we call isolated gonadotropin deficiency (IGD) . This is usually a condition present from birth, and many boys with IGD are born with a penis that is smaller than it should be.

Hypospadias Hypospadias is a malformation that affects the urethral tube and the foreskin on a male's penis. The urethra is the tube that carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body.Hypospadias is a disorder in which the male urethral opening is not located at the tip of the penis.The urethral opening can be located anywhere along the urethra. Most commonly with hypospadias, the opening is located along the underside of the penis, near the tip.ccording to pediatric neurologists: Hypospadias is a disorder that primarily affects male newborns. Hypospadias also has a genetic component. Some fathers of males with hypospadias also have the condition. Prematurity and low birth weight are also considered risk factors for hypospadias.

Identifying the causes of birth defects Some birth defects are caused by a mutation (change) in a single gene. In 1991, Stephen Warren, PhD, a March of Dimes grantee at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, identified the gene that causes fragile X syndrome, the most common inherited cause of intellectual disabilities.
