Abstract
|
|
|
|
The cri-du-chat syndrome is a chromosomal disease caused by a deletion on the short arm of chromosome 5. Clinical features are characteristic facial features and high pitched cat like cry, various malformations, complications, dysphagia, and feeding difficulties. There have been several reports of cri-du-chat syndrome in Korea, but no case reports about the patients with cri-du-chat syndrome with dysphagia who underwent percutaneous endoscopic gastroenterotomy (PEG) have been reported. Therefore, we report a case of cri-du-chat syndrome with sustained dysphagia who underwent PEG for long term enteral nutrition with a review of the literatures.
