Clinical embryology equips pediatricians with essential knowledge about how developmental processes in the womb can impact health after birth. By understanding these early developmental stages, pediatricians can better identify, treat, and prevent congenital conditions. This book offers a detailed exploration of the stages of human embryonic development, emphasizing the clinical relevance of each phase. Topics include congenital anomalies, genetic factors influencing growth, and the impact of environmental exposures on development. By bridging embryology and pediatrics, it serves as an invaluable guide for diagnosing and managing developmental disorders in children.
