ABSTRACT
The current classification of the congenital with multiple take in count four groups:
syndrome, sequence, complex and association, by this way it is possible have a clinical diagnosis of these dysmorphic disorders and it’s pathogenetical explanation, even in spit of the phenotypic variability of some syndromes. The use of this classification facilitate an early diagnostic of theses diseases, and it’s classification.
