Patient's question:
Today I went to my cousin's house to visit relatives, but I don't know what's wrong with their child? When they cry, it's like the sound of a kitten. Is it possible that a child's crying like a cat could be due to Cri-du-chat syndrome?Doctor's answer:
Hello, meowing-like crying is a characteristic manifestation in infancy. Special facial features include a small head, round moon-like face, asymmetry, and a state of panic; widened eye distance, epicanthal folds, downward slanting eyes, strabismus, cataracts, and optic nerve atrophy.
