As well as the most common inheritance patterns of congenital syndromes. The next part of the work is organised in sections based on system specified classification of congenital syndromes. The main characteristics of each syndrome are summarized, including background and history, other name, etiology (genetics, epigenetics, and environment), clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment, follow-up and prognosis, and differential diagnosis. Covering all known congenital syndromes and defining their characteristics, this book is the ultimate reference for clinicians, researchers, and students primary in the fields of genetics and pediatrics but also in other fields as it covers the syndromes of all systems. This book is particularly useful for clinicians in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to patients.
