Question

Can a child with the chromosome abnormality 45, XX, der(13;21) be healthy, what are the chances, what medication should be taken, or what precautions should be taken in daily life? I have been pregnant twice and the baby had no heartbeat by three months. The baby I had aborted was also found to have the same chromosome abnormality. I hope a genetic expert can give us good advice. Thank you in advance for your help.

Answer

21-TRISOMY Syndrome is a birth defect disease caused by chromosomal abnormalities, and the probability of having a healthy child varies depending on the type of abnormality. The translocation type of 21-TRISOMY Syndrome has a lower probability and may be associated with specific chromosomal translocations. Genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis are key to assessing the likelihood of future healthy childbearing. It is recommended to consult a geneticist for personalized advice and necessary examinations and tests.
