Abstract: The frequency, structure and dynamics of congenital malformations in stillborn and deceased newborn children were studied at the level of the territorial medical association Rishcani, Chisinau municipality for 2013–17. The dependence of the congenital anomaly frequency on demographic indicators and the presence of risk factors are characterized. The study allowed us to establish that the largest percentage of CAs are isolated, that CAs is more common in mothers aged 18 to 30 years old who live in rural areas, during repeated births, in full-term newborns, in girls, and in women who had harmful habits (smoking) or taking medications. In the structure of the CDF, the CAs of the heart, face and central nervous system occupy the leading place.
