The course of the disease was studied in children with renal hypoplasia on the basis of the results of clinical observations and analysis of autopsy protocols. The data of clinical observations of 236 children aged 0 to 15 years were analyzed. Complications and cause of death were assessed; concomitant malformations were analyzed with consideration for pathoanatomic findings.

Disturbances in these systems may result in a rise of blood bilirubin levels and disbalance between direct and indirect bilirubin leading to jaundice. Gilbert's syndrome (GS) is a genetic disorder associated with the enhanced level of indirect bilirubin due to GTF insufficiency.

A study was and comparison was carried out of the phenotypical and genotypical features in 115 patients with cholelythiasis and 97 patients with cholesterosis of the gallbladder. The received data proves that cholelythiasis is characterized by the domination of (prevalence) of type O I blood type, decrease of blood types B III and AB IV in comparison to the control group and to the group with cholesterosis of the gallbladder (p < 0.05), increase of the frequency of gene O decrease of frequency of gene B, decrease of heterozygosis.

Main anthropometric parameters at birth (weight, height, and head and chest circumferences), concomitant developmental malformations, gene frequencies and phenotypic combinations of ABO and Rhesus factor blood groups were analyzed. The babies with duodenal atresia were found to have considerably impaired intrauterine development, multiple concomitant hypoplastic developmental abnormalities, significantly higher frequencies of the ORh+ phenotype, and lower frequencies of the ARh+ phenotype.

Mass, height, head and chest circumferences of children after birth have been studied. In addition all associated malformations, a blood group (ABO system) and the rhesus-factor have been investigated.
