A doctor has provided 1 answer

Confusing post: A hole in the heart is a common birth defect but not one I think of from Accutane exposure. If you want to have your kid assessed for this or other exposure related problems seek an evaluation by a medical geneticist, often affiliated with a medical school or children's hospital. They would go through both parents family tree and any findings that may indicate a source or recurrence risk.
