Brief Description

18P Syndrome is a partial deletion of the small arm of the # 18 chromosome. Children with this disorder are generally very small in stature and will have some level of learning disabilities. There are facial charecteristics such as ptosis of the eyes and many others. A child may have some or none or all of the physical signs of 18P. Every case is unique. Children are prone to auto-immune diseases and deficiencies as well as hearing problems and a high incidence of dental caries. I cannot begin to list all the symptoms.
