Sažetak

Genetic syndromes caused by chromosomal aberrations involve a recognizable pattern of multiple congenital anomalies with increased neonatal and infant mortality, making care challenging for the family, primary care practitioners, and specialists. About 28% of children born with trisomy 13 die during the fi rst week of life. The median life expectancy is about 2.5 days. We present a 12-year-old girl, the longest living patient with Patau syndrome in Croatia, followed-up from the birth until the age of 12 years. The conventional nonintervention approach has been revised and we suggest changing the traditional view of the condition.
