A trisomy 18 fetus with severe congenital anomalies including craniorachischisis, large omphalocele, and bilateral cleft lip and palate is reported. The occurrence of neural tube defects and/or omphalocele in reported cases of trisomy 18 is discussed and the frequency of these anomalies in 85 triso...

My old college roommate gave birth to a child with this terrible condition. Because she was fairly young and had no risk factors, she didn't find out anything was wrong until her 20 week anatomy scan. You know, the one where usually you find out the sex of your baby; it's a happy...
The trisomy 18 syndrome, also known as Edwards syndrome, is a common chromosomal disorder due to the presence of an extra chromosome 18, either full, mosaic trisomy, or partial trisomy 18q. The condition is the second most common autosomal trisomy syndrome after trisomy 21. The live born prev...
as no osteological symptom is pathognomonic for trisomy 21 or 18. Moreover, a large proportion of these features could be linked to environmental factors, such as malnutrition, and to other genetic disorders that can result in abnormal growth patterns or could even fit into normal growth variabi...
Further investigations (ultrasonography, amniocentesis) confirmed a trisomy 18 fetus.Conclusions: Risk assessment by computer based algorithms relies on maternal factors and specific DS/NTD marker profiles. Aberrant marker profiles are not distinguished from normal. Therefore, it is essential that prenatal ...
This multi-state, population-based study examined data obtained from birth defect surveillance programs in nine states on live-born infants delivered during 1999–2007 with T13 or T18. Information on children's vital status and selected maternal and infant risk factors were obtained using matched ...

Additionally, their risk of hematologic malignancies is elevated, being 10- to 20-fold higher than in the euploid population [21]. Here, we present the case of a 16-year-old male with TS21 presenting with life-threatening CSS. Notably, despite extensive investigation for potential triggers, ...
Finally, he discussed ongoing research investigating the genetic risk factors for leukemia in children with DS. Conclusions: snRNA-seq provides a high-resolution view of gene expression at the level of individual cells, uncovering heterogeneity within specific cell populations. Long-read sequencing ...
