The case of a rare chromosomal disease in a newborn child

Abstract

Triploidy is a rare lethal chromosomal anomaly characterized by the presence of an additional set of chromosomes in the cell. The presented clinical observation demonstrates a rare case of the birth of a child with a complete form of triploidy. The features of the clinic, the data of laboratory and instrumental research methods, as well as the methods of treatment used are described. The baby was born prematurely with signs of intrauterine hypotrophy, respiratory failure and multiple stigmas of dysembriogenesis. In dynamics, the child's condition was aggravated by the development of sepsis, which subsequently led to a fatal outcome.
