Dynamic Views of Structure and Function during Heart Morphogenesis [PDF]
, 2006 Congenital heart defects remain the most common birth defect in humans, occurring in over 1% of live births. The high prevalence of cardiac malformations can be partially attributed to limited knowledge regarding the embryonic roots of the disease.
