What is chromosomal abnormality?

Patient's question:

A 6-month-old baby cannot lift their head, can roll over, has a normal appetite, and shows no significant abnormalities, but sometimes they experience tremors. What are the causes of chromosomal abnormalities?

Doctor's answer:

Chromosome abnormalities are mainly caused by the underdevelopment of chromosomes, leading to a series of genetic diseases. Children may experience intellectual disabilities and delayed growth and development. Conditions like Down syndrome or congenital idiocy are the most common chromosomal abnormalities in humans, causing intellectual development disorders and many mental developmental delays. Timely treatment for the child can help promote growth and development. If the chromosomal abnormality is severe, it may lead to various deformities in the child.
