Abstract:
Clinical teratologists will have new challenges during the 1990s as birth defects are diagnosed more frequently than in previous decades. Malformations and genetic disorders will be diagnosed in utero during all three trimesters of pregnancy. The teratologist may participate in or lead a multispecialty group to give the involved family optimal interpretation of test results, counseling, and recommendations regarding subsequent clinical management.
