What is trisomy 22?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Trisomy 22: Trisomy is a big word that really only means three copies. Trisomy 22 means three copies of chromosome 22. Trisomy 22 causes many spontaneous pregnancy losses. If a fetus has trisomy 22 it rarely survives into the second or third trimester. If born alive, the newborn usually dies.
