Abstract: | This paper reports the associated malformations and the clinical findings that were observed in 417 cytogenetically confirmed Down Syndrome patients. Among them congenital heart defects have occurred more frequently [75; 17.98%] than osteoarticular malformations [23; 5.52]; eye anomalies [22; 5.27%]; and gastroenterological malformations [n 16; 3.84%]. With regard to prognosis and treatment appropriate counselling has been given to Down Syndrome patients and their families. |
