title: Trisomy 22: report of a patient diagnosed as a neonate.
abstract: The present case report describes the occurrence of Trisomy 22 in a neonate. This chromosomal disorder has rarely been diagnosed in the neonatal period. A review of the literature is presented to elucidate the fact that only further diagnosis of new cases of Trisomy 22 in neonates will allow a clearer delineation of this chromosomal abnormality in the neonatal period.
