Abstractobjective Congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV), or clubfoot, is a structural malformation that develops early in gestation. Birth prevalence of clubfoot is reported to vary both between and within low-and middle-income countries (LMICs), and this information is needed to plan treatment services. This systematic review aimed to understand the birth prevalence of clubfoot in LMIC settings.methods Six databases were searched for studies that reported birth prevalence of clubfoot in LMICs. Results were screened and assessed for eligibility using pre-defined criteria. Data on birth prevalence were extracted and weighted pooled estimates were calculated for different regions.Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to examine changes in birth prevalence over time. Included studies were appraised for their methodological quality, and a narrative synthesis of findings was conducted.results Forty-eight studies provided data from 13 962 989 children in 20 countries over 55 years . The pooled estimate for clubfoot birth prevalence in LMICs within the Africa region is 1.11 (0.96, 1

Introduction: Congenital malformations have emerged as a major cause of stillbirths and neonatalmortality. It is a common cause of morbidity and mortality not only in the newborn but also in childhoodand beyond. The objective of this study was to find the prevalence of congenital malformation at birth. Methods: The descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 2456 live births in KathmanduMedical College and Teaching Hospital from April 2017 to March 2018 after obtaining ethicalapproval from the institutional review committee (Ref no. 08052017). A convenient sampling methodwas applied. All the live-born babies delivered in this hospital during the study period were clinicallyexamined for the presence of congenital anomalies. All malformations were classified accordingto the International Classification of Diseases-10 classification. The mothers of the newborns withcongenital malformations were interviewed in a predesigned proforma. Statistical analysis was doneusing statistical package for the social sciences version 20. Results: Out of 2456 examined live births, congenital malformations were observed in 66 cases.The prevalence of congenital malformation was 66 (2.6%) at 95% confidence interval (4.19-1.98) oftotal live births. The genitourinary system was the most common system involved with congenitalmalformations being 16 (24.2%), followed by musculoskeletal system 14 (21.2%), and cardiovascularsystem 12 (18.2%). Conclusions: Congenital malformation plays a major role in the mortality and morbidity of neonatesas well as children. The genitourinary system was the most common system involved.
