Abstract

Survival of patients with congenital malformation has improved over the last decades. Primary care paediatricians must be aware of the most common problems that this group of patients suffers. More importantly, paediatricians can offer a holistic view that is often lost in specialised consultation. This article is focused on common congenital malformation, such as oesophageal atresia, abdominal wall defects, anorectal malformation and Hirschsprung disease, and congenital diaphragmatic hernia. The main problems are shown, with special emphasis on long-term complications and all the dimensions of the individual.
