Overview
TGA is not known to be associated with any specific single gene defect, but some studies have shown possible genetic association in some cases of TGA, involving deletions of chromosome 22q11. Other risk factors in the mother that may increase the risk of this condition include age over 40, alcoholism, diabetes, prenatal malnutrition and rubella or other viral illness during pregnancy.
Risk factors
Generally, TGA is not known to be associated with any specific single gene defect, but some studies have shown possible genetic association in some cases of TGA, involving deletions of chromosome 22q11. Other risk factors in the mother that may increase the risk of this condition include:
- Age over 40
- Alcoholism
- Diabetes[1]
- Prenatal malnutrition
- Rubella or other viral illness during pregnancy[2]
- Maternal use of anti eplileptic drugs[3]
