Upper limb abnormalities:


        For parents, caregivers, health care providers, and teachers, concerns and questions often arise regarding the care and well-being of individuals with Cornelia de Lange Syndrome. 

Physical function is usually remarkably good in individuals with CdLS who have limb abnormalities. Therefore, physical therapy (physiotherapy) or surgical procedures are usually not required. 

Prosthetic devices may be used to aid physical function, however, individuals with CdLS may find difficulty tolerating them.
