| Edwards' syndrome |
A chromosome abnormality in which there are three copies of chromosome 18 instead of two. It is also called Trisomy 18. The condition means that the baby may not survive pregnancy, or may have a short life and require specialised nursing, but some babies can be cared for at home and may live longer than first predicted.
