“…Geographic factors, sociocultural, racial, and ethnic factors are responsible for the variance in the incidence of congenital abnormalities. [4] In community based study the prevalence of birth defect in Saudi population was 0.04% [5] ,1.28% in Jordan [6] while the birth defect in Fallujah city was 14.7% . [7] Single-system malformations and multiple-system malformations are two basic categories of congenital defects.…”

The Birth abnormalities or congenital malformations can emerge during the fetal development stage or from a parent's genetic composition. The main contributors to neonatal and childhood disease and impairment are congenital abnormalities. Increase the observation of congenital anomaly (CA) in Mama Village that belong to Kirkuk city has been made with information about frequency and nature of these abnormalities. This study was conducted to estimate the prevalence of congenital anomaly in Mama Village that belong to Kirkuk city. A Cross sectional study that includes 60 couples who are living in Mama Village for the duration from March 2020 to March 2022 to investigate the risk of congenital anomaly that increases in frequency in 2019. The data was collected by direct interview of the participants and took a full history of the performing ultrasonography. The highest prevalence of CA that reach 55%, 96.7% of participant were cousin. Nearly two third of participant had single anomaly. Central nervous system anomaly was the most prevalent anomaly in the current study, and hydrocephalous was presented in 18.3% of them. Young age group mother, cousin marriage and history of infant death were a risk factor for CA. It is concluded that a higher prevalence of congenital anomaly in the current study especially when compared with the number of area population. The central nervous system was more probable which shown to be substantially correlated with maternal history of prior previous child death, paternal consanguinity, and age. Higher prevalence of central nervous system could be related to the environment effect which is (weapon-related) occur in the studied area previously. Key words: Congenital anomaly, cousin marriage, weapon explosion.

Background The knowledge of anatomical variations as they relate to the urinary system is valuable, especially in the proper evaluation and conduction of surgical as well as interventional procedures of the urinary tract. The study aimed to determine the prevalence and possible association between anatomical variations of the upper urinary tract and renal vasculature. Methodology : A total of 200 computed tomograms were generated with Toshiba Aquilion Prime 160-slice scanner and analyzed for the presence of potential anatomical variations using a Vitrea multimodality work station capable of image post processing by two expert radiologists. Results The most common anatomical variation of the upper urinary tract found on the right was extra-renal bifid pelvis at 25 (12.5%) while on the left it was baggy extra-renal pelvis at 27 (13.5%). Early branching hilar renal artery and accessory superior polar renal artery both at 19 (9.5%) were the most common renal vasculature variations on the right and left respectively. There was statistically significant association between anatomical variations of the upper urinary tract and renal vasculature with a p-value of < 0.001. Conclusion This study showed that anatomical variations of the upper urinary tract are commoner on the right side while for renal vasculature they are commoner on the left. There was a statistically significant association between the anatomical variations of the upper urinary tract and that of the renal vasculature indicating an increasing likelihood of one occurring if the other is present.
