Genetics and developmental delay.

Abstract:

:The discovery of new cytogenetic and molecular genetic techniques and principles has been explosive in recent years. A secure diagnosis based on molecular evidence has become possible for many syndromes previously only clinically defined, which has helped enormously in predicting children's developmental progress, in allowing knowledgeable surveillance for potential associated health problems, in genetic counseling, and in prenatal diagnosis. This article reviews several of the most significant recently described cytogenetic and molecular genetic principles and techniques in relation to the child who presents with developmental delay.
