See NIH website: See: www.Nchi.Nlm.Nih.Gov/pubmedhealth/pmh0001992/ for a full review. Down syndrome results when a kid is born with too much chromosome material in his/her cells which confuses the system & results in anomalies & poor development. It cannot be fixed, but outcome can be improved with attention to associated problems.
