title: [Pediatric aspects of genetic counseling].
abstract: Pediatric patients are often affected by malformation and genetic illness. Among 316 consecutive cases of genetic counseling chromosomal disorders amounted to one third of the problems and 10% of the cases were neural tube defects. Drugs in pregnancy and intrauterine infections contributed to another 10%. Genetic counseling represents a small but important part of a comprehensive medical care.
