Microarray Application in Newborns With Multiple Congenital Anomalies

Objective: Congenital anomalies are defined as abnormalities of body structure or function that are present at birth and have developed prenatally. Microarray is considered the first-tier diagnostic test for patients with multiple congenital anomalies. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between microarray results and the phenotype in newborns with multiple congenital anomalies, contribute to patient management by comparing with similar cases in the literature, detect previously unidentified Copy Number Variations (CNV), investigate the hereditary origin of the detected changes, and provide appropriate genetic counseling.
