Epilepsy in Numerical Chromosomal Abnormalities

摘要

Numerical chromosomal abnormalities cause a broad spectrum of clinical symptoms for children, including congenital malformations, developmental delay, and epilepsy. The combinations and significance of such symptoms are associated with specific chromosome regions. Prognosis of developmental delay and epilepsy also depends on the chromosomal regions affected. Many distinctive chromosomal deletion syndromes have been clinically recognized.
