dc.description.abstractBackground and Objectives: Attention was recently drawn to the association of congenital anomalies (CA) with severity and complexity of cerebral palsy (CP). Evidence of this association is presented. Participants-Methods: The Portuguese National Surveillance of Cerebral Palsy (PNSCP) registers data of 5-to-8-year-old children with CP, born since 2001. The PNSCP follows the Surveillance of Cerebral Palsy in Europe (SCPE) common database protocol. Data were cross-referenced with the Portuguese National Registry of Congenital Anomalies. Children born between 2001-2015, notified until September 2024, were analyzed. CA were characterized according to ICD-10, following the EUROCAT criteria. Associations between the clinical forms of CP, complexity indicators and the presence of CA were explored. Results: Of 2251 registered children, 603 (27%; 95%CI 24.9-28.6) had at least one CA recorded; 228 children had multiple CA (10%; 95%CI 8.9-11.4). CA of the nervous system Q00-Q07 (CANS) are the most frequent (16%; 95%CI 14.9-18.0), followed by CA of the circulatory system Q20-Q28 (CACS) (4.9%; 95%CI 4.1-59). The odds of having at least one indicator of CP complexity increases by 2.6 times when having a CA (OR 2.6; 95%CI 2.01-3.48); slightly higher if a CANS exists (2.9; 95%CI 2.06-4,21), and slightly lower if a CACS exists (1.6; 95%CI 0.98-2.83). Conclusion: The prevalence of CA in children with CP is much higher than in the general population and increases the odds for greater severity and/or complexity of CP. The odds seems to be higher in the presence of CANS. This should be considered when assessing the prognosis and planning intervention.eng
