    Congenital heart disease can be caused by both genetic and environmental factors. Genetic factors include chromosome abnormalities, gene mutations, abnormal RNA, and epigenetic changes, while environmental factors include maternal diseases like rubella and exposure to teratogens during pregnancy that can alter hemodynamics and disrupt heart development. Common types of congenital heart defects include ventricular and atrial septal defects, patent ductus arteriosus, coarctation of the aorta, aortic stenosis, and pulmonary stenosis. Symptoms may include heart murmurs, being acyanotic or cyanotic, and heart failure.
