Genetic Testing for the CdLS Spectrum (post birth)

        For forældre, plejere, sundhedsplejersker og lærere opstår der ofte bekymringer og spørgsmål vedrørende pleje og velvære for personer med Cornelia de Lange syndrom. 

Genetic tests have been developed to identify changes in any of the genes associated with the CdLS spectrum. A referral to a clinical geneticist can be made if parents feel that it would be useful to discuss the possibility of testing for the child with a CdLS spectrum syndrome. Genetic testing is not always appropriate or necessary (particularly if a doctor is very certain about the clinical diagnosis), but would be the only way to approach prenatal testing for future pregnancies.
