Hereditary syndromes are genetic disorders caused by mutations in specific genes that can be passed from parents to their children. These syndromes often lead to a range of health issues, including physical abnormalities, increased risk of certain diseases, and developmental challenges. Examples include Down syndrome and Marfan syndrome. Diagnosis of hereditary syndromes typically involves genetic testing and family history analysis. Early detection can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life. Treatment may include regular medical check-ups, therapies, and lifestyle adjustments to address the specific challenges associated with each syndrome.
