This is a case report of Aadyant, a child with Down syndrome, [1] across his life so far from age 8-17 years. Although Aadyant (name changed) had a sound immediate postnatal period, he was diagnosed with Down syndrome at birth. He suffered from convulsions at the age of 6 months. He had subluxation of the right hip joint.
Sensory motor cognitive developmental therapies with perseverance and participation by the family do improve the condition of the person. |
