ABSTRACT

The Cornelia de Lange Syndrome is a congenital development disorder. It occurs in offspring of consanguineous parents by autosomal recessive inheritance. Its incidence is 1 per 10,000 inhabitants, and most appear to be sporadic. Clinically characterized by dysmorphism, developmental delay and growth retardation, upper limb malformations, heart defects and gastrointestinal abnormalities. We report a case of a newborn with Cornelia de Lange syndrome and review of the literature.
