Multidisciplinary Care Enhances Congenital Anomaly Outcomes
Abstract
Congenital anomalies necessitate a comprehensive management strategy involving early diagnosis, timely intervention, and multidisciplinary care. Advances in prenatal diagnosis, genetic counseling, and surgical techniques have led to improved outcomes. Integrated fetal medicine and pediatric surgical teams, supported by detailed pre-operative planning, optimize patient care. Minimally invasive surgeries and long-term follow-up are increasingly important. Specialized approaches are employed for conditions like congenital heart defects, abdominal wall defects, lung malformations, anorectal malformations, and neural tube defects, aiming to enhance survival and quality of life
