520			_aSummary: Any congenital condition characterized by varying degrees of mental retardation and multiple defects is called Down's syndrome. It is the most common chromosomal abnormality of a generalized syndrome and is caused by the presence of an extra chromosome 21. down's syndrome occurs in approximately 1 in 600 to 650 live births and is associated with advanced maternal age, particularly over 35 years of age. In women older than 40 years, incidence is as high as 1 in 80. There are cases, which are caused by translocation, which is a genetic aberration caused by non-disjunction during cell division. In this case the incidence is not associated with maternal age, risk case is low about 1 in 15 if the mother is the carrier and 1 in 20 if the father is the carrier. Down's syndrome also occurs as a mosaic variant, in which there is a mixture of Trisomy 21 and normal cells and in which there are fewer physical defects and less severe retardation. Some of the characteristics of infants with the syndrome are microcephaly, brachycephaly, flattened occiput, a typical facies with mongoloid slant to the eyes, low set ears and depressed nasal bridge.Down syndrome is the most common known cause of cognitive impairment in young children. It is a chromosome disorder, which affects both mental and physical development in a number of detrimental ways, and although advances in medicine have succeeded in alleviating many of the major associated health problems, little headway has yet been made in reducing the considerable learning difficulties encountered by the most children born with this condition. While the present generation of children can confidently be expected to live much longer and healthier lives than children with Down syndrome born in earlier decades, it is still unfortunately the case that most will meet great problems in achieving many of the important milestones in early cognitive development (Falls, 1995).
