In this Course we will deal with simple and complex abdominal wall defects, speak about congenital malformations of the spine and the face go beyond the typical neural tube defect and cleft, explore the association of congenital heart defects and brain development, and the potential tools, question the management options for conditions such as congenital diaphragmatic hernia and fetal hydrops and we challenge the current practice on genetic investigation and pathological analysis upon the diagnosis of syndromic conditions.

COURSE LEARNING OBJECTIVES
review the diagnosis and management of simple and complex abdominal wall defects

highlight the complexity in diagnosis and management of complex urogenital malformations
elucidate the new insights in complex abdominal wall defects
provide a diagnostic algorithm for vertebral and facial anomalies beyond the typical lesions
understand the complex interaction between congenital malformations and brain development and the tools to investigate this relationship
discuss the new insights in the management of congenital diaphragmatic hernia and fetal hydrops
discuss recent evolution in prenatal genetic diagnosis and post-mortem investigation of fetal syndromic conditions
