Q

Explain Down syndrome

A

Translocation of chromosomal 21 translocated into 14.
85% survival into 50s
Mortality: congenital heart failure, respiratory infection, increased risk of leukaemia leading to Alzheimer’s disease.

Morphological: branchcephaly, short neck, single palmer crease, clindodactyly. Older children are passionate and music lovers.
