BACKGROUND: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is one common birth malformation, accounting for ∼30% of total congenital abnormalities. AIM: Considering the unknown role of consanguinity in causing CHD, this study hypothesised that consanguineous unions and/or familial aggregation may be frequent in the Azorean Island of São Miguel (Portugal). To that end, a retrospective observational study was performed based on...
