The cause of this rare chromosomes deletion is unknown.]]> 2019-02-19 15:52:38 UTC https://padlet.com/3472671/v7fawvg7zkqr/wish/332750628 3472671 https://padlet.com/3472671/v7fawvg7zkqr/wish/332750891 The clinical symptoms and development delays may be related to the size of the 5p arm. Most cases are not inherited from newborns parents. About 10 percent of people with Cri-du-Chat syndrome are not inherited. The deletion usually occurs as a random event during the formation of reproductive cells (egg and sperm).]]> 2019-02-19 15:53:00 UTC https://padlet.com/3472671/v7fawvg7zkqr/wish/332750891 3472671 https://padlet.com/3472671/v7fawvg7zkqr/wish/332750998 Some symptoms are,
