stated in the WHO programme "Health for all by the year 2000". At present, in about 80% of cases the etiology of congenital anomalies is either multifactorial or unknown (Chapter 1,). When the etiology of an anomaly is ultifactorial, the individual genetic and environmental factors involved are unknown in almost all cases. In 1974 the Committee of Medical and Public Health Research of the European Community (EC) decided to set up a network of registrations of congenital anomalies in EC member states to increase the knowledge of the occurrence of congenital anomalies. This network was called EUROCAT: EUropean Registration Of Congenital Anomalies. In 1974 this network consisted
