Results: Incidence of congenital heart disease among the studied groups was 47.1%. % of male was signicantly higher among CHD patients than those without (70.8%, 59.3% respectively) p =0.000 .% of CS was signicantly higher among CHD patients than those without (83.3%, 77.8% respectively) p =0.03 .% of improved outcome was signicantly lower among CHD patients than those without (54.2%, 92.6% respectively) p =0.000 Conclusion: Incidence of congenital heart disease among the studied groups was 47.1%. % of improved outcome was signicantly lower among CHD patients than those without (54.2%, 92.6% respectively) p =0.000
