More specifically for these... (sorry for the ANKI format)

(OH exposure in utero/FAS) {{c1::VSD, ASD, patent DA, tetralogy of Fallot}}
(congenital rubella) {{c2::patent DA, pulm a. stenosis}}, septal defects
(Down syndrome) {{c3::all septal defects -- AV septal defect [endocardial cushion defect], VSD, ASD}}
(maternal DM) {{c4::great vessel transposition}}
(Marfan syndrome) {{c5::MVP, thoracic aortic aneurysm/dissection, aortic regurgitation}}
(prenatal lithium exposure) {{c6::Ebstein anomaly}}
(Turner syndrome) {{c7::bicuspid aortic valve, aorta coarctation}}
(Williams syndrome) {{c8::supravalvular aortic stenosis}}
(22q11 syndromes) {{c9::truncus arteriosus, tetralogy of Fallot}}
