Abstract

Down Sendromu (DS) en sık rastlanılan kromozom anomalisi olup, çeşitli sistemlerde oluşan anomalilerle birliktedir. Mental retardasyon, endokrinolojik ve kardiyolojik anomaliler pediatristler tarafından iyi bilinmekte ve izlenmektedir, ancak servikal spin anomalilerine daha az sıklıkla rastlanılır. Atlanto-odontoid mesafenin genişlemesi ve atlantooksipital instabilite DS'lu hastaların %20-60'ında görülmektedir. Hastaların çoğunda nörolojik semptomlar akut travma veya anestezi sonrasında ortaya çıkar.Bu yazıda spontan olarak akut güçsüzlük ve kuadriparezi gelişen 16 yaşında DS'lu bir kız olgu sunulmuştur.

Down Syndrome (DS) is the most common chromosomal disorder in humans and presents abnormalities in several organ systems.
