Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. What are chromosomal diseases?Doctor's answer:
Chromosome diseases are disorders caused by various factors leading to abnormalities in the number or structure of chromosomes. They often involve the disruption of hundreds of genes and can result in physical deformities, intellectual disability, delayed growth and development, and multiple functional disorders. They are also known as chromosomal aberration syndromes. The overall incidence rate of chromosomal diseases in newborns is 0.6%. I personally recommend that both partners undergo thorough examinations before planning to have a child.
