Question
A 6-month-old baby cannot lift their head, can roll over, and has normal appetite. There are no other significant abnormalities, but the baby sometimes trembles. What treatment options are available for chromosomal abnormalities?
Answer
There are many different diseases caused by chromosomal abnormalities, such as Trisomy 21. These conditions are primarily genetic issues, and there are no effective treatments for genetic mutations at present. Treatment mainly focuses on symptom relief to extend the patient’s life. However, for most patients with chromosomal abnormalities, the prognosis is not optimistic, and life expectancy is typically shorter.
