A member asked:
My daughter has 22q11 deletion. one of the questions on here said that 38 was old for someone with di george. is there an average life expectancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Things change.: For genetic syndromes, things are changing rapidly. A child with a chromosomal disorder born 30 years ago would not have the life expectancy of a child born today with the same genetic disorder. There were many reasons children with 22q11.2 syndrome may have died in the past and most of these conditions are managed much better now and into the future. Life expectancy is constantly improving.
