Abstract AR
تم إجراء التحليل الكروموسومي لخمسين من مرضى متلازمة داون و قد بينت النتائج أن 88 % من المرضى يملكون ثلاثية كروموسوم 21 و 2% بانتقال كروموسومي 21 و 10 % موزائيكية لثلاثية كروموسوم 21.
كما بينت النتائج أن 72 % من المرضى بعمر 34-12 سنة و 26 % بعمر أكثر من 35 سنة و أن 2 % بعمر الأمومة 20-18 سنة و أن المتلازمة أكثر انتشارا بين الذكور من الإناث.

Chromosomal analysis was done on 50 clinically diagnosed Down syndrome patients.
The karyotype analysis revealed that 88 % (44 of 50 cases) with trisomy 21, having three copies of chromosome 21.
In 2 % (one case) translocation was observed, one copy of chromosome 21 was translocated to another chromosome 21 and in 10 % (5 cases) there was a mosaicism for a trisomic.
The higher percentage (72 %) of cases was found between 21-34 years.
26 % of cases were found with ages above 35 years.
Only 2 % of cases were found with maternal age between18-20 years and Down syndrome is more frequent in males than in females.
