It is often thought of as the study of human birth defect s, but it is much broader than that, taking in other non birth developmental stages, including puberty and other non human life forms, including plants. A newer term developmental toxicity includes all manifestations of abnormal development, not only frank terata. These may include growth retardation or delayed mental development without any structural malformations. ref Rogers, J.M., Kavlock, R.J. Developmental toxicology. In C.D. Klaassen ed.

merge to teratology date September 2011 Developmental toxicity is any structural or functional alteration, reversible or irreversible, which interferes with homeostasis, normal growth, differentiation, development or behaviour, and which is caused by environmental insult including drugs, lifestyle factors such as alcohol, diet, and environmental chemicals or physical factors . Developmental toxicology is a science studying adverse developmental outcomes. This term has widely replaced the early term for the study of birth defects, teratology , to enable inclusion of a more diverse spectrum of adverse developmental outcomes. Typical factors causing developmental toxicity are radiation , infections e.g. rubella , maternal metabolic imbalances e.g. alcoholism , diabetes , folic acid deficiency , drugs e.g. anticancer drugs , tetracyclines , many hormones , thalidomide , and environmental chemicals e.g. Mercury poisoning mercury , Lead poisoning lead , dioxins and dioxin like compounds dioxins , tobacco smoke .

The Preston & Northcote Community Hospital often referred to as PANCH was a former hospital located in Preston, Victoria Preston , Victoria Australia Victoria , Australia , opened in 1958 and relocated to the Northern Hospital in Epping in February 1998. PANCH was located on the corner of Bell and Hotham Streets. The site was sold off in April 1999, and part of the 30,000 square metre site is now occupied by The Bell Centre student accommodation . Fixtures from the hospital were removed by volunteers to help rebuild a community hospital in Suai , East Timor . The hospital s former operating theatres were used for a play on genetic engineering named The Teratology Project in 2002. A new facility called the PANCH Health Service was established in 2003 by the State Government to address a shortage of medical services in the area. This State Government health service, which is located opposite the old PANCH site, is named out of nostalgia and is not directly connected with the former Preston & Northcote Community Hospital.

Causes Deformity may arise from numerous causes Genetic mutation Damage to the fetus or uterus Complications at childbirth birth A growth or hormone disorder Reconstructive surgery following a severe injury e.g. Third degree burn burn injury . Arthritis and other rheumatoid disorders Deformity can occur in non humans, as well. Frogs can be mutated due to Ribeiroia Trematoda infection. Mortality In many cases in which a major deformity is present at birth, it is the result of an underlying condition severe enough that the baby does not survive very long. The mortality of severely deformed births may be due to a range of complications including missing or non functioning vital organs, structural defects that prevent breathing or eating, and high susceptibility to injuries or infections that lead to death. In mythology Mythological creatures may have been created due to a deformative syndrome also, for instance, descriptions of mermaid s may be related to the symptoms of sirenomelia . The Irish Mythology includes the Fomorians , who are almost without exception described as being deformed, possessing only one of what most have two of human eye eye s, arm s, Human leg leg s, etc. or having larger than normal limbs.
