Background:

From 2009 to 2010 in Mexico. CMDOMS prevalence was 27.4/10,000 births. The first places were congenital deformation of the feet with a prevalence of 8.0 and congenital deformation of the hip with 6.7/10,000 births.

Objective:

To estimate for Mexico the national prevalence of CMDOMS in live births, by state and municipality, as well as to analyze spatial distribution by these same territorial delimitations.

Method:

A database of 20,175,422 newborns (NB) alive from 2008 to 2017 was integrated. Percentages and prevalence were calculated at the national level, federal entities and municipalities, with confidence intervals at 95%. Maps were made and prevalence was stratified.

Results:

The congenital malformation prevalence rate was 77.8/10,000 NB. CMDOMS were in first place with 40.8% and a prevalence of 31.8/10,000 NB. Prevalence by federal entity presented a range of 8.0-75.8/10,000 NB, were stratified by states and municipalities for presentation on maps.

Conclusion:

In Mexico for the years 2008-2017 an increase in CMDOMS prevalence was observed globally and in particular of some specific causes.
